{"product_id":"carpet-with-dragon-and-phoenix-2","title":"Carpet with Dragon and Phoenix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dragon and Phoenix Carpet is inspired by one of the most important surviving carpets of the early Ottoman era. Featuring the dramatic encounter between a dragon and a phoenix, this remarkable design symbolizes the eternal balance between opposing forces and reflects centuries of cultural exchange across Asia and the Middle East.\nOriginally introduced into Anatolian art through interactions between Chinese, Central Asian, and Islamic traditions, the dragon and phoenix motif became one of the most distinctive themes of early Ottoman carpets. Today, it remains highly sought after by collectors, historians, and admirers of classical Oriental design.\nHandwoven using traditional techniques and natural dyes, this carpet showcases exceptional craftsmanship and historical authenticity. Deep reds, rich blues, and elegant geometric framing enhance the mythical figures, creating a striking work of textile art suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors.\nMore than a decorative piece, the Dragon and Phoenix Carpet is a celebration of cultural heritage, craftsmanship, and the enduring beauty of one of the world's most iconic carpet designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis rug boasts a harmonious blend of 5 natural colors, each derived from traditional dyeing methods:\nNatural Wool Color 320: Specially Washed\nBurnt Coffee 102: only specially washed\nKhaki 413: Dyers’s Weed\nFalu Red 416: Madder Root\nGunmetal Blue 409: Indigo\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ararat Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51984884236584,"sku":"ART00803","price":3400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/7780\/8936\/files\/ART00803.jpg?v=1781594707","url":"https:\/\/www.araratrugs.com\/products\/carpet-with-dragon-and-phoenix-2","provider":"Ararat Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
