Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Persia, Early 20th Century – This stunning antique Kerman rug showcases an elegant pattern of repeating medallions that is surrounded by a vivacious curvilinear arabesque. The perfectly proportioned field is dotted with staggered lozenges that continue through the edges of the field creating a formal pattern based on the principles of infinite rapport. The warm golden-brown lozenges are decorated with tonal vine scrolls that complement the fluid botanical patterns that are set over the luxurious sapphire blue field. Lavish botanical borders adorned with tonal vine scrolls enclose the exquisitely decorated background and support the warm wheat-colored guard bands. Dark sapphire-blue outer borders decorated with a golden-yellow botanical filigree conclude the composition and complement the regal blue and gold color scheme that gives the field an elegant countenance.
