About the Item

An exceptional and rare 19th century oversized Persian Farahan rug, handwoven in Western Persia circa mid-1800s. This mansion-size antique rug features a highly sought-after allover Herati pattern, rendered with remarkable finesse in a rich navy blue field and accented by tones of brick red, soft green, pale yellow, ivory, and light blue. The elegant border introduces additional hues, including pink, red, cream, and golden yellow, creating a beautifully balanced and harmonious composition.  In addition, extra wide Persian rugs from the 19th century are exceptionally rare, especially in the Farahan style. Crafted during the height of the Farahan weaving tradition, this rug exemplifies the region’s signature aesthetic—fine knotting, delicate symmetry, and sophisticated color sensibility. Though the piece exhibits a short pile and some wear consistent with age, the clarity of design and vibrancy of color remain compelling, enhancing its authenticity and collectible appeal.   Dimensions: 13’ 6“’ x 17’ 6” Date of Manufacture: 3rd Quarter of the 1800s Place of Origin: Persia Material: Wool pile on a cotton foundation with vegetable dyes Condition: Wear consistent with age and use The Persian Knot Gallery, SKU: 1078 Mansion-size rugs, 19th century Persian rugs, Allover Herati Pattern Rugs, Oversized Farahan Rugs, Mansion Size Rugs, Antique Persian Farahan, Persian Rugs blue, Antique Farahan Rugs, Antique Sarouk Carpets, Vintage Sarouks, Sarouk Farahan Rugs, Antique Persian Rugs, Vintage Persian Carpets, Vintage Oriental Rugs, Antique Handmade Rugs, Sustainability, Allover Design Rugs, Climate Change, Reducing Carbon Footprint, Sustainable Living.
