A Beautiful And Extremely Fine Antique Persian Lavar Kerman Room Size Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Late 19th century – A grand, richly detailed medallion floats serenely on an open field surrounded by lush vine scroll corner pieces on this antique Kerman masterpiece of classic Persian design. The lovely soft red tones of the medallion complement the accenting dark ground of the corner pieces, while they both contrast beautifully with the soft champagne of the intervening ground. The contrasts recur on a smaller, finer scale in the multiple small borders, nicely balancing the monumentality of the field.
