Beautiful Decorative Large Room Size Antique Persian Khorassan Rug, Country Of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rug, Circa Date: First Quarter of the 20th Century –  A rich, warm pattern of fronds and petals covers this antique Persian rug, mirrored perfectly about the long axis. The light yellow backdrop is detailed with black stitches and colored with brown, red-orange, shadowy blue and parchment white. Each multicolored frond is shaped like a teardrop with petals jutting over each curved edge, reminiscent of a paisley design. Curling, jagged-edged leaves and small flowers shaped like trumpets spring from the narrow stems that connect each larger figure. These loop and overlap to form a dizzying array, an effect heightened by the symmetry of the antique Persian Khorassan rug. This central field is wrapped with a series of borders, their stark black and white coloration highlighting the yellow warmth of the background within. The widest border of this antique rug, backed in black, features pale, intricate leaves and elaborate blooms repeating around, linked with white vines.
