About the Item

73285 Antique Persian Kermanshah Rug, 03'02 x 06'02. Steeped in the refined artistry of Persia’s most celebrated weaving ateliers, this hand-knotted wool antique Kermanshah rug offers a level of elegance reserved for the true connoisseur. Its palette alone signals rarity—pink-lavender, sage, burgundy, and soft cream arranged with painterly finesse against a sumptuous field of deep sapphire blue. This interplay of hues evokes the romance of Qajar-era court textiles, where color was not merely aesthetic but a symbol of cultivated taste and social stature. From the moment it enters a space, the rug asserts an atmosphere of cultured luxury. At the heart of the exclusive composition, two stately rows of lotus medallions unfold in alternating form, each one refined, sculptural, and serenely balanced. The lotus—long celebrated as a symbol of purity, divine beauty, and rebirth—anchors the entire design with a sense of spiritual gravitas. Surrounding each bloom is a constellation of smaller floral motifs, creating a rhythmic garden that feels almost ceremonial. The medallions appear to float within the rich sapphire field, giving the piece a dreamlike aura reminiscent of illuminated Persian manuscripts. This exquisite work of art is then embraced by a rare double border of replicated lotus flowers, their forms interspersed with meticulously drawn chrysanthemums. Such a border treatment speaks to the Kermanshah workshops’ reputation for detail-driven artistry, where even the smallest motif carried symbolic meaning. The chrysanthemums—associated with longevity and refinement—create a visual cadence that guides the eye with fluid grace. Each bloom feels intentional, echoing a tradition of weaving that celebrates abundance and poetic ornamentation. Finally, this one-of-a-kind masterpiece is framed by a double floral border, a finishing gesture that heightens its sense of prestige and compositional harmony. The effect is one of controlled opulence—never ostentatious, always elevated. This antique Persian Kermanshah rug is more than a decorative treasure; it is an heirloom of cultural prestige, ideal for collectors who seek pieces with soul, legacy, and undeniable presence. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran (Persia). Measures 03'02 x 06'02.
