Classic Traditional Blue Background Fine Antique Dense Floral Design Persian Kashan Rug 43529

Traditional Classic Dense Floral Pattern Fine Weave Antique Persian Kashan Rug, Persia, circa 1900 – On this magnificent antique Kashan a stepped and scalloped ogival medallion in red and ivory nestles within a lush tangle of vines and flowers on a deep navy ground. In the four corners spandrels articulated in the form and palette of the medallion round out the field design. A red ground vine scroll border combines visually with the corner pieces to produce a larger, complex frame for the field in classic Persian tradition. Here as in all great Kashan rugs, the delicate beauty of the design relies of t he fine precision of the weave and the drawing.
