Antique Persian Sultanabad Rug, Persia, 1900 — Handwoven in Sultanabad rug with a stunning sapphire color features a bright gold pattern rich in symmetry and meaning. A thin frame of deep blue fences a striking pattern so dense with rich detail and masterful symmetry that mere suggestions of blue peer through.
