About the Item

77627 Rare Late 19th Century Antique Persian Kerman Rug, 09'11 x 12'10. For the connoisseur of understated grandeur, this hand-knotted antique Persian Kerman rug is the embodiment of cultivated taste — a rare fusion of artistic pedigree and soulful imperfection. Washed by time into a dreamlike haze, its faded palette and gently distressed patina lend it the kind of lived-in elegance that cannot be replicated — only earned. This is not simply a rug; it is a visual memoir woven in wool, imbued with a sense of history that speaks softly yet commands reverence. At the heart of this opulent piece lies a large-scale cusped octofoil medallion — a regal flourish of trefoil pendants, floral rosettes, palmettes, and vine scrolls that swirl like whispers from a lost garden. Outlined by sweeping arabesque cloudbands and scrolling acanthus leaves, the composition breathes with both structure and softness, symmetry and surrender. The grand-scale spandrels echo the medallion’s architecture with a romantic, almost painterly touch, recalling frescoed ceilings in crumbling palazzi or silk panels weathered by desert winds. Framing this exclusive work of art is a masterstroke of Persian storytelling — a signature Tree of Life cartouche border, where the divine intertwines with the botanical in a poetic symbol of growth, eternity, and spiritual continuity. Flanked by inner and outer meander bands that pulse with rhythmic energy, this rare framing device elevates the rug from decorative object to cultural artifact. The palette — parchment ivory, faded indigo, dusty rose, and pale sand — feels both heirloom and haute couture, as if curated by time for an audience of one. This antique Kerman rug is as much a tactile talisman as it is a design statement. Woven in a time when every precious thread bore the fingerprint of the artisan, its very existence supports the preservation of cultural memory and craftsmanship in a mechanized world. Perfect for those who seek authenticity over artifice, rarity over replication, and storytelling over surface — this masterpiece offers a rare opportunity to own a fragment of Persia’s poetic soul. A collector's treasure. A designer’s dream. A legacy in loom. Rendered in muted hues and variegated shades of sand, tan, ecru, taupe, camel, rose, ink blue, brown, taupe, navy blue, light gray, champagne, mushroom, pashmina, khaki, and light pink with other neutral accent colors. Distressed. Desirable Age Wear. Abrash. Antique Wash. Some spots throughout. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 09'11 x 12'10. Date: 1890's. Late 19th Century.
