Antique Khorassan Persian Rugs 42036

Antique Khorassan Persian Rug, circa 1900
Sprays of fine vines and palmettes arrayed in vertical columns repeat rhythmically across the soft apricot ground of this sweetly decorative antique Khorassan. The finesse and delicate scale of this design recur in the system of multiple borders, which also echo the soft color juxtapositions of the field. The reserved grace of the design is heightened by the elegant texture and luminosity of the wool.
