Antique Persian Silk Kashan Rug 3242

Antique Persian Silk Kashan Rug, Origin: Persia, Circa: Late 19th century – A lush profusion of flowering vines reminiscent of the best Kashmir shawls spreads elegantly across the field of this exquisite antique silk Kashan rug from Central Persia. The vines are contained by the contours of the ogival central medallion in magenta and blue and by the pale aqua cornerpieces that all articulate the field into different areas. The magenta ground border adapts the vine motif to a framing format that beautifully resolves and caps the entire composition with a unified coloration and design texture.
