A lush, ornamentalized scene of paradise scene unfolds elegantly across the field of this superb antique Kerman.

Finely Woven Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century – Antique Kermans like this are prized for their remarkable fidelity to classical Persian forerunners. Here a lush, monumentalized scene of paradise in shades of red, god, and green unfolds elegantly across the deep navy field. Like all of the finest antique Persian rugs — and more specifically, the finest antique Kerman rugs — this incredible piece represents a tremendous achievement not only in the art of rug-making, but in fine arts broadly. Kerman rugs such as this, with a gorgeous palette and impeccable ornamentation, are glorious testaments to the artistic prowess of the master Persian rug-weavers of old.
