About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Lilihan rug, measuring 1' 6" x 1' 9", reflects the village weaving traditions of the Arak region in central Persia. Lilihan rugs are admired for their durability, compact knotting, and charming folk-art aesthetic, making them favorites among collectors of smaller decorative pieces. The field of this rug is designed on a deep, midnight ground that provides a striking contrast to the vibrant floral motifs. At the center, stylized blossoms and branching stems emerge in shades of red, pink, blue, and ivory, arranged in a balanced, almost mirror-like layout. These floral sprays are surrounded by additional scattered rosettes and leafy forms, creating a lively sense of movement. The border frames the design with a continuous vine-scroll adorned with blossoming flowers rendered in warm tones of salmon, soft green, and muted gold, enhancing the rustic beauty of the composition. This piece is a fine example of Lilihan craftsmanship, harmonizing bold color with traditional Persian village artistry.
