At first glance, this carpet is easily recognizable as a Khorassan. It was created in the late 19th century at a time when the carpet weaving industry in Persia was undergoing a revival. Master weavers of the time often relied on traditional designs that originated in the Safavid Dynasty in the 16th century for their inspiration.

One thing that stands out about Khorassan designs is their formality. The complexity of the borders of this piece is reminiscent of an ornate Victorian design picture frame and gives this piece an elegant look and feel. Khorassan carpets are known for delicate, repeating motifs set against a dark background that add a rich look and feel to the piece.

The artist only used a simple color palette of darker browns, medium browns, creams and neutrals to create this complex design. This suggests that the design was experienced and had a high level of artistic talent. The Khorassan carpet has a fine weave, which is necessary for the creation of the level of detail in this piece. The colors have an earthy warm feel, and the design itself lends a formal quality to the piece.

Persian rug weavers were known for producing carpets of such quality that the name is still used today to indicate carpets of exceptional quality. Khorassan has one of the oldest carpet weaving traditions in the world, and their pieces are known for beautiful, rich designs and high-quality work. If you look closely at the design and level of detail in this piece, you will see why this is the case.

This beautiful antique rug would add richness to a room with neutral tones, where it lends a delicate and refined quality. It could also complement a palette base on rich, deep blues and natural woods. The piece has an exotic feel and breathtaking design that is the perfect complement to a room filled with fine antiques, traditional furniture, and soft, curvy lines.
