Beautiful and Unique Silk Antique Persian Suzani Textile, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1900 – The ground of this antique Persian Suzani textile is plain black, while the pattern is embroidered onto it in silk. Its composition is concentric. A small rosette is at its center surrounded by a ring of dense flowers and a dark square band.
The black ground of the textile, while simple, plays a very important role in the textile’s visual impact. It provides a needed contrasting element that brings the lightly colored decorative floral design to the forefront. The black bands also work to organize the piece’s composition, separating each element into registers rather than one crowded surface.
It falls under our square rugs category, as both its width and height are equally 5 ft and 10 in. A textile of this kind works as both a hanging ornament as well as a decorative floor covering or quilt. Our custom rug service can recreate a palette like this one at another desired size.
