Antique Khorassan Persian Rug from eastern Persia, late nineteenth century - A classic medallion pattern ripples gracefully outward from the center on this sumptuous antique Khorassan. A central star is enclosed by a larger ogival medallion in blue against a sandy gold field with blue corner pieces echoing the outer medallion. Rich vines and arabesques undulate within all these elements, elaborating the design. Arabesque borders on a champagne ground enclose the whole design with elegant finality.
