Design and Symbolism:
The Persian Vase Rug is distinguished by its intricate sickle-leaf motifs, vine scrolls, and palmettes, reminiscent of the Safavid period's 'Vase' technique carpets. These elements are thoughtfully arranged to create a harmonious and balanced composition, reflecting the sophistication of 16th-century Persian artistry.
Historical Context:
Sickle-leaf carpets from the Safavid era are celebrated for their complex designs and exceptional craftsmanship. Notable examples include the Clark Sickle-Leaf Carpet and the piece housed in the Gulbenkian Museum, both of which have significantly influenced the appreciation of Persian textile art. The Persian Vase Rug by Ararat Rugs is a contemporary homage to these masterpieces, preserving their timeless beauty for modern interiors.

Ararat Rugs Kerman Vase Technique Carpet 17th Century Revival Rug, Natural Dyed
By Ararat Rugs
Located in Tokyo, JP
The source of carpet comes from the book Museo Calouste Gulbenkian, Printed by Gulbenkian Museum Lisbon, in 2015, nr.52. This is a vase-technique carpet design in the 17th century in the Kerman region, of Persia. In the 16th century, in Safavid Persia, medallion rugs were among the most appreciated, but at the end of the century and the beginning of the next, a taste for decoration with floral motifs, coils, and palmettes gradually emerged, covering the entire field. This is the case, for this example design, with rugs from eastern and southern Persia. Among the latter are the famous vase-type rugs attributed to the Kerman region, to which our design belongs. Considered by some specialists to be quite atypical, this rug made in Persia, probably in Kirman in the time of Shah Abbas (1587-1625), presents, on a dark blue background, an exuberant and dynamic vegetal decoration in which horizontal and vertical rows of palmettes and stand out, due to their dimension and spiral movements, large sickle-shaped leaves, alternating with branches and flowers. The very narrow rim, with a red background, is filled with a frieze of coils and flowers. It’s a famous carpet design as ‘Kerman Vase Technique Rug, The Most Expensive Rug...
