Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1880 – The repeating geometric representation of a floral design in set in a bold color palette gives this antique Bakshaish Persian rug an undeniable charm. A rich currant shade works well with the mature oceanic hue that presides over the background, and the present tones are aided by flourishing details, which are done in a creamy daisy and a more yellow-toned buttermilk. The floral chains make up the detail-rich borders of this antique Persian Bakshaish rug, guiding the viewer’s attention to the large foreground within. Blossoms abound, branching from the hands of winding vines to interact with leaves and fruit in an artistic rendition of the beauty of nature.
