Sultanabad Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century - A grand composition of elaborate palmettes and vines in pastel tones repeats with stately poise across the soft red ground of this lush antique Sultanabad. A delicate vinescroll border offers a gentle contrast to the monumentality of the field, just as its soft green ground provides a counterpoint to the red field. Rarely do carpets display such a masterful interplay of design and color.
