43588 Antique Khorassan, Persia, early twentieth century
On this luminous antique Khorassan a finely wrought, mesh-like trellis of flowering vines in pale blue and rust repeats endlessly across a soft sand field. The main border of palmettes and quatrefoils is set against a soft blue ground, inversely echoing the color scheme of the field, while the flanking minor cartouche borders revert to a soft sand ground. The scintillating, diamond-like glitter of the design is heightened by the lustrous sheen of the plush wool pile.
