Forged in the realm where myth meets royalty, Zarven unfolds with a presence both commanding and enigmatic. Its field glimmers like dusk-touched metal, deep hues entwined with flashes of bronze and sapphire light. Patterns weave in regal symmetry, echoing forgotten empires and timeless heraldry. At its center, a medallion rises like a sigil of power, luminous yet mysterious, crowned in thread and shadow. Hand-knotted by Afghan artisans, each knot is a seal of devotion, each motif a fragment of legend. This is not just a carpet — it is a tapestry of power, a sovereign vision underfoot, eternal in its strength.
