About the Item
Exquisite Qum Silk Round Rug with Imperial Hunting Scene, 20th Century — 100% Hand-Knotted Silk
An exceptional and rare circular Qum silk rug, intricately hand-knotted with extraordinary finesse, showcasing a vivid imperial hunting scene Measuring 40 inches in diameter, this luxurious masterpiece is rendered on a rich gold ground, symbolizing prestige, abundance, and royal patronage.
The remarkably detailed composition depicts an exhilarating royal hunt: mounted horsemen in richly patterned garments ride spirited horses in pursuit of game, evoking the noble leisure of Persian aristocracy. Surrounding them is a thriving paradise garden, alive with leaping gazelles, playful fawns, majestic blue lions, graceful birds in mid-flight, and vibrant parrots perched among profuse blossoming foliage. A serene pond with ducks and cranes brings a tranquil counterbalance to the energetic chase, while rocky mountains and dense vegetation create layers of depth and visual movement.
The floral border encapsulates the scene with scrolling vines and blossoms in soft ivory, blues, and rose hues — a refined frame that enhances the central narrative. The artistry reflects the elegance of classical miniature painting, translated into silk with jewel-tone precision and exceptional knot density.
Soft to the touch with a brilliant natural sheen, the silk pile heightens every contour, color, and expression, making the imagery appear almost animated. Round Qum rugs of this caliber — especially with such opulent figural storytelling — are exceedingly scarce.
A perfect collector’s centerpiece or luxurious accent for a refined interior — this is not merely a rug, but a museum-grade work of cultural heritage designed to captivate and endure.
