Expert Opinion

“Purple rugs are true eye-catchers—their colour depth and aura bring both creative energy and a sense of harmonious calm. From subtle mauve to regal violet, they open up unexpected styling possibilities for both modern and classic interiors. Every piece here has been personally curated with a focus on material, weaving artistry, and visual aesthetic.”

What Are Classic Purple Rugs?

Classic rugs are still painstakingly hand-knotted today—from new wool, silk or fine blends. They stand for centuries-old craftsmanship, brilliant colour compositions, and enduring beauty.

Oriental Rugs: Masterpieces from Iran, India, Afghanistan, Turkey, China, the Caucasus & Pakistan. Purple and lilac shades appear in borders, medallions, as accents or even base colours in both traditional and modern styles.
Persian Rugs: Rich violet, plum or lavender especially add an extravagant touch to Tabriz or Qom rugs—sought after by collectors and design lovers alike.
Nomadic Rugs: Authentic and expressive, often featuring violet, magenta, or lilac designs and traditional symbolism.

Modern Purple Rugs – Contemporary Design, Natural Colour

Our collection also includes modern designer pieces—abstract patterns, colour-blocking, minimalist lines—interpreted in purple, aubergine, amethyst or magenta. Handcrafted using wool, cotton, bamboo silk, viscose or art silk, these are ideal for urban, glam, or boho styles and truly personal interiors.

Material Guide: How Does Material Influence Colour Character?

Fine Sheep’s Wool: Warm, matte, durable—brings out gentle purple tones (lavender, mauve, lilac), ideal for living and bedroom spaces.
Wool with Silk: Lustrous highlights giving depth and vibrance to violet, purple, amethyst.
Wool with Viscose/Bamboo Silk: Velvety soft, adds a modern edge with brilliant effect—excellent for contemporary purple looks.
Pure Natural Silk: Ultra-refined, especially brilliant purple hues, usually for wall/tableau rugs or exclusive luxury pieces.
Animal-Free Art Silk: Affordable and glossy—great for designer rugs in lilac and violet shades.

Expert Tip: The more silk-like yarns a rug contains, the more the colour depth and luster will shift with the light—especially true for lilac and violet palettes.
