About the Item
This rare and captivating antique Persian Kashan rug, hand-knotted in the 1920s, is a remarkable work of art that deviates from the traditional floral medallion style of Kashan. This piece features a vibrant pictorial narrative that transforms the rug from a floor covering into a hanging tapestry of Persian life and culture.
The central field depicts a serene outdoor gathering, possibly illustrating a scene from classic Persian literature or a courtly picnic (Bazam). Figures in traditional dress are seen enjoying music (with instruments like the Saz/Tanbur and possibly a Daf), conversation, and the bountiful harvest beside a flowing stream, all framed beneath a blossoming tree and against a backdrop of distant hills and architecture.
Adding to its extreme rarity and historical value, the main border is intricately inscribed with poetry in Farsi script, making this rug a highly collectible item for enthusiasts of fine art and Persian history. Woven from soft, high-quality wool, this piece retains excellent colors, primarily rich blues, reds, and creams, and is in good antique condition, ready to become a focal point in any sophisticated interior.
