"Empress Olga" Royal Silk Rug with Imperial Park Medallion | Empress Collection
The Imperial Vista — The Empress Olga Silk Composition
This luxury contemporary tufted wool rug and fine silk masterpiece, entitled "Empress Olga," is a breathtaking highlight of the Empress Collection. Designed by the visionary couturier Alex Sander, the rug presents a seamless harmony between elaborate neoclassical ornamentation and a monumental central medallion depicting a serene Imperial Park. Every detail of the landscape and surrounding scrolls was meticulously drawn by hand, allowing the artist to "breathe life" into the silk and achieve a level of hyper-realism previously unseen in textile design.
The "Empress Olga" rug is crafted from the finest silk with a proprietary protective impregnation, ensuring that its delicate, luminous surface remains resilient against contamination. The high-density tufting and 6 mm pile undergo specialized surface polishing to create a velvet-like texture that interacts exquisitely with light, making the imperial garden appear almost three-dimensional. This limited edition rug is a true style icon, reflecting 25 years of Alexander’s Collection’s legacy in elevating floor coverings to the realm of Haute Couture art.
