Antique Khorassan Persian Rugs 2075

Antique Khorassan Persian Rug, circa 1900
A graceful, flowering tree of life with spiraling branches spreads across the rich sea blue field of this sumptuous antique Khorassan. Finely proportioned columns support abstractly rendered arches at either end of the field. The relative simplicity and openness of the field contrasts with the closely detailed complexity of the multiple borders, while the consistent use of blue and sandy tones across the carpet provides a unified decorative effect.
