An allover pattern of shield medallions unfolds across this grand and sumptuous antique Kerman carpet made in Persia by the great master Aboul Ghasem Kermani.

Antique Persian Rugs — Antique Kerman Persian Rugs by Master Rug Weaver Aboul Ghasem Kermani, circa 1900 – Wide scalloped interlacing bands define an allover, tessellated pattern of shield medallions on this grand and sumptuous Kerman made by the great master Aboul Ghasem Kermani. A profusion of leafy interior details in reds, blues, apricot, and tans, enriches both the color and graphic quality this scheme. The rolling vine-scroll border on an ivory ground adds a different, more finely proportioned effect, contrasting nicely with the scale and design of the field. For other carpets in our collection made by Master Kermani, see inventory numbers 2991, 3206, 3412, 3416, 2910, and 42108.
