Antique Persian Khorassan Rug, Persia, c. 1920 – Here is a remarkable antique Persian rug, a stately composition replete with the elements of classical Persian rug design. Woven in the famed Persian rug-making center of Khorassan, this beautiful antique Oriental rug is composed in classical proportions, featuring a striking series of inner and outer borders which surround a large field of classical floral and vine scroll elements. Similar utilization of traditional Persian design trends abound throughout this carpet, with flowing vine scrolls and floral elements of design dancing across the entire space of the sea foam colored field. The symmetry throughout the piece is certainly nothing short of impeccable, much as can be said about the overall quality and craftsmanship of this piece. And while this particular antique Oriental rug is certainly in the traditional and classical camp, that of course says nothing about its uniqueness, its individuality. For while it is proudly part of a tradition, this antique Persian carpet is a one of a kind work of art, its sea foam field practically brimming over with confidence, with personality.
