Beautiful and Finely Woven All Over Design Antique Persian Khorassan Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Antique Persian Rug, Circa Date: 1900 – This exquisite antique Persian Khorassan rug uses powerful outlines to create contrast in an otherwise closely unified color palette. Warm instances of sandy beige, earthy brown and elegant cream come together to convey a clear sense of comfort and style, broken up here and there by the cool presence of a silvery, almost ephemeral blue. The rich and thick border surrounds the core of the antique Persian rug, itself surrounded by several smaller borders that seem to act as outlines to the original large form, creating enough clear contrast to gracefully lead the viewer’s eyes from the outer sections of the antique rug to the inner ones. Here, at the interior design of the rug, all of the flowing floral motifs come together in a unified theme, arranged in evenly spaced sections that allow the viewer’s eyes to leap from one configuration to the next, all while admiring the beautiful forms within.
