About the Item

73364, antique Persian Kermanshah rug with William Morris Arts Crafts style. The architectural elements of naturalistic forms combined with Arts Crafts style, this hand knotted wool antique Persian Kermanshah rug astounds with its beauty and draws inspiration from William Morris. Taking center stage is a concentric eight-point cusped medallion anchored with palmette pendants and outlined with serrated frondescence vinery. The abrashed field is covered with an all-over dense botanical pattern composed of blooming palmettes, stylized florals, curved sickle leaves, and vines. A cartouche-style motif with florals and foliage outlined with cloudband vinery sprouts from each corner spandrel. It is enclosed with a Herati border variation flanked with a double inner and outer acanthus botanical Meander guard border. The overall composition is distinctly reminiscent of the Arts Crafts movement carpet designs of late nineteenth and early twentieth century England. The Arts Crafts movement celebrated craftsmanship and simple, informal folk styles of decoration. Leading designers of the movement, such as William Morris and C.F.A. Voysey, embraced hand knotted rug making and crafted high-quality woven textiles in contrast to the overly decorative manufactured goods popular at the time. With its English-inspired charm and earthy color palette informed by the natural world, this antique Persian Kermanshah rug emanates so much character and would be a wonderful addition to any interior especially one inspired by the Arts Crafts, Art Nouveau or Prairie School movements. Perfect for a great room, wine cellar, executive suite, conservatory, state room, royal suite, hotel lobby, music room, living room, dining room, drawing room, private library, golf locker room, billiards room, clubhouse, large home office, master retreat, private Chambers, studio, study, loft, lounge, entertainment parlor, trophy room, large bedroom, or formal sitting room. Well-suited for a wide range of interior styles: Arts Crafts, Art Nouveau, Prairie School, Craftsman, Biophilic Design, Traditional, Eclectic, Modern, Contemporary, Industrial, Rustic, Artisan, Lodge, Cabin, Cottage, Bungalow, Manor House, Tudor, Edwardian, Art Deco, Mid-Century Modern, Mediterranean, Old World, Neoclassical, Cottage, and English Country. Rendered in variegated shades camel, ruby red, navy blue, royal blue, mauve, brass, rose, ecru, burgundy, ink blue, sand, and tan with other accent colors. Desirable age wear. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 10'01 x 14'08.

Late 19th Century Persian Kermanshah Masterpiece of Biophilic Elegance
Located in Dallas, TX
74298 Oversized Antique Persian Kermanshah Rug, 13'06 x 17'04. A rare confluence of heritage and harmony, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Kermanshah rug exudes a grandeur that transcends time. Its warm, earthen field unfolds in a mesmerizing lattice of Mina Khani motifs, palmettes, and stylized florals—an eternal garden rendered in wool. Against this intricate backdrop, every detail blossoms with refined precision, echoing the elegance once reserved for Persian nobility. To encounter such a piece is to experience a textile symphony of nature, geometry, and artistry intertwined, a woven manuscript of beauty that elevates any interior to the realm of the extraordinary. The rug’s composition is framed by a stately Herati palmette border, itself a gallery of exceptional artistry. Encircled within are delicate guard bands, alive with flowers and rare cloudband motifs that hint at celestial order, balance, and eternity. This refined framing not only anchors the field but also magnifies its lush vitality, much like an ornate garden wall enclosing a timeless Persian masterpiece. Each design element whispers of grandeur, status, and cultivated taste—a symbol of belonging to a legacy of discerning collectors. Beyond its historical artistry, this one-of-a-kind Kermanshah rug speaks directly to the language of Biophilic Design. Its earth-toned palette and naturalistic forms—buds unfurling, vines curving, blossoms interlacing—bring the serenity of nature indoors, transforming space into sanctuary. It offers not mere decoration, but an atmosphere of wellbeing, grounding its owner in both cultural prestige and a timeless connection to the natural world. Such qualities have made rugs of this caliber coveted by connoisseurs who seek not just luxury, but luxury with soul. To possess this exquisite work of art is to hold an heirloom of rarity and significance—an artwork woven not only for the floor but for the legacy of its keeper. Its monumental scale, formal elegance, and sublime craftsmanship command a presence befitting the grandest of salons, yet its earthbound grace makes it equally resonant in contemporary spaces that honor organic modernity. More than an antique, this Persian Kermanshah is a distinguished treasure, destined to define its surroundings and elevate its owner into the ranks of cultural tastemakers. Rendered in variegated shades of brown, burgundy, blue, rose, tan, navy blue and taupe with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 13'06 x 17'04.
