About the Item
This 6x6 vintage Persian square rug, hand-knotted in wool and originating circa 1950-1960, represents an extraordinary acquisition documenting mid-century Persian artistic experimentation at its most audacious.
On the Design:
This masterwork shatters every convention of classical Persian carpet design through explosive abstract design that speaks the visual language of Kandinsky and Miró translated into Persian design. The field abandons traditional hierarchical organization for all-over abstract expressionist vocabulary where organic forms, geometric fragments, and biomorphic shapes collide in chromatic celebration. The design achieves remarkable spatial complexity through overlapping planes of color—lavender, coral, golden amber, sage, navy—each hue maintaining distinct identity while participating in a larger symphonic whole. Curvilinear elements flow across the surface with gestural freedom while geometric patterns create rhythmic counterpoint, demonstrating the weaver's sophisticated understanding of abstract compositional principles.
Bold black linear accents define forms and create dramatic contrast that enhances the overall visual energy. These calligraphic elements suggest Persian miniature painting traditions reinterpreted through modernist sensibilities, creating a bridge between cultural heritage and contemporary innovation. For the sophisticated collector seeking pieces that challenge rather than confirm expectations, this represents the ultimate expression of Persian weaving's modernist moment—an authenticated example from a brief revolutionary period that fundamentally expanded understanding of what Persian carpets could express through ancient techniques applied to avant-garde vision.
