About the Item

Antique Oversized Persian Kirman Rug Size: 14'3" × 21'4" (434 × 650 cm) This exquisite antique Persian Kirman rug, dating back to the 1880s, is an exceptional example of masterful craftsmanship from one of Persia’s most distinguished weaving centers. Originating from the famed city of Kirman, renowned for producing some of the finest Persian carpets, this oversized piece showcases the hallmarks of classical elegance and artistic sophistication. The rug’s all-over design features a harmonious lattice of stylized floral motifs interwoven with palmettes, blossoming vines, and intricate arabesques—evoking the opulent gardens of Persia. Rendered in a dignified, time-softened palette of dusty rose, muted coral, pale indigo, sand, and ivory, the composition reflects both subtle grandeur and refined restraint. A sophisticated border of scrolling tendrils and repeated floral patterns frames the central field with grace and balance, offering a rhythmic counterpoint to the complex yet symmetrical core. Crafted from high-quality wool and dyed with natural pigments, this rug retains its depth of tone and texture, with age lending it a gentle patina that enhances its beauty. The meticulous weave and densely knotted pile further attest to its superior quality and enduring value. Ideal for a grand interior or curated collection, this antique Kirman carpet is more than a decorative element—it is a historical artifact embodying Persian artistic heritage and the timeless allure of 19th-century textile art. A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition.Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
