Coral Color Tribal Allover Design Antique Room Size Persian Bakshaish 19th Century Rug 46289

Room Size Antique 19th Century Persian Bakshaish Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Late 19th Century – This sophisticated antique Persian Bakshaish rug depicts an exceptional linear repeating pattern with pillars of stacked lozenges linked by rustic rosettes and geometric symbols. The formal linear elements are flanked by decorative floral sprays that are rendered in contrasting colors. Flurries of ornamental leaflets and cryptic symbols dot the field and counterbalance the dominant large-scale motifs. The soft peach-colored field features earthy red accents and a soothing abrashed texture that creates a simple background, which complements the decorative motifs and unifies the opposing color palette. Exceptional main borders decorated with grand rosettes and serrated leaves with articulated curves create a graphic, well-defined pattern that complements the angular motifs featured in the field and solidifies the classical Northwest Persian style of this fantastic antique Bakshaish rug.
