About the Item

This 10x16 antique Persian rug represents one of the finest curations of the reputed Kerman provenance ever seen by Rug Kilim—a royal selection and exemplar of their quality, showcasing a density of mythological design and an exquisitely complex design and palette of countless vibrant colors—made with hand-knotted wool circa 1920-1930. On the Design: This antique piece is a visual epic, a dense, complex tapestry that embodies the height of Kerman's renowned workshop artistry. Admirers of the craft will admire the sheer intricacy required to render such fine detail across this expansive, near-palace size—a rarity even within this coveted provenance. The field is a breathless mosaic, presenting a highly symmetrical array of intricate floral vinery, cartouches, and stylized palmettes, all woven with a visual density that demands attention. The original palette, now softened by a century of time, is a dramatic symphony of saturated tones, favoring deep berry reds, regal violets, and midnight indigo, beautifully punctuated by unexpected flashes of ice blue, sage green, and soft blush-pink. The density of the pattern, framed by a border of structured cartouches, creates a mesmerizing sense of movement and depth. This Kerman is not merely a floor covering; it is a profound artistic statement, fusing history, opulence, and regal color into a collectible work of art. Condition: This antique Persian Kerman rug further enjoys great condition for its age and origin.
