Antique Kerman Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1880’s – Here is a truly wonderful antique rug – an antique floral design Kerman rug made in Persia some time during the 1880’s. This rug represents something genuinely special, and is a testament to the artisans who produced it. A fabulous piece, this rug possesses many of the qualities most sought after by collectors and experts, and would bring beauty and sophistication to any home. Strapwork borders, detailed guard bands and intricate millefleur motifs woven in a diverse palette of colors add eye-catching details to each element of this formal carpet from Kerman. Somber blue guard bands and accents in the field are counterbalanced by branching floral sprays woven in lavish shades of pink and rich magenta paired with soft green foliage. Simply put, this rug is a remarkable piece of work. A stately and majestic design and composition combine to make this rug something more than a decorative piece: they combine to make it a veritable work of art.
