Antique Persian Oversize Khorassan Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – Like other gorgeous antique Persian rugs, this antique oversized rug, a finely woven antique Khorassan rug, uses curling lines and patterns to create a natural flow. Dynamic strokes lead the viewer’s eye along the ivory background, where countless floral motifs and elements play against each other. Dark coffee browns and deep smoky grays all move against each other throughout the piece. Borders and frames stack against each other to create a layering effect, resulting in a regal aura that seems to permeate through every aspect of the work. Through rich contrast and brilliant unity, the rug establishes a simultaneously soothing and active scene.
