Antique Sultanabad Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century - Antique Sultanabads are prized for the grand scale of their design, the bold spontaneity of their drawing, and the rich depth of their color, as this outstanding example shows so well. A dynamic design of palmettes and curling vines in soft golds, greens, and blues, spreads across the light camel field. Enclosed by a majestic vinescroll of similar scale on a deep terracotta ground. The consistency in design between the border and the field is all the more remarkable given the contrast in color, but then this sort of play of opposites is what great Sultanabads are all about.
