About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1920–1930, this 11x15 antique Persian Kerman Lavar rug is a monumental addition to Rug Kilim’s Antique Vintage collection. Representing one of the most celebrated provenances of traditional Persian craftsmanship, this piece denotes a sense of refinement and grandeur in an exceptional detail and spacious size—an exemplar of the Kerman Lavar works in our collection and an versatile selection for a wide variety of large-scale interior projects worthy of such a special, rich piece. On the Design: This magnificent antique Kerman Lavar rug is a profound work, weaving together a history told in an enticing medley of colors and intricate botanical forms. The field features a sophisticated beige-brown ground, which provides a dramatic and elegant stage for a mesmeric floral medallion design. The most notable of this piece's features is the grand central medallion, a hallmark of the Lavar style, flourishing in a rhythmic "Gradiance" of azure blue, soft cream, and earthy tones. Admirers of the craft will appreciate the deep harmony in this design, where the scale of the patterns is complemented by finely drawn floral sprays and scrolling vines. These botanical jewels are interspersed with smaller decorative icons, creating a dimensionality that draws the eye into the rhythmic depths of the weave. Unique to this design is the intricate, multi-layered border—a gallery of repeating floral motifs that bind the vibrant heart of the piece in stately symmetry. Given its rare dimensions and meticulous craftsmanship, this rug is an intentional and poetic contribution to the legacy of Persian textile art—a sophisticated, smart new language in design for the connoisseur's home. Condition: This antique Kerman Lavar Rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
