Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Persia, Early 20th Century – This palace-sized Persian carpet is a testament to the legendary design and weaving talent of Kerman, a city that stands out among the great carpet-producing centers in Persia. This sumptuous neoclassical-influenced medallion carpet features a stunning convergence of Anglo-Persian motifs that are extraordinarily elegant. Lush floral garlands and carefully outlined carnations gracefully meander around the ovular medallion and across the luxurious parchment-colored background. Spiraling vine scrolls and low-contrast florals wind around the medallion and field where they become lush spandrels and borders. This antique Kerman medallion rug has an unequaled feminine appearance with soft pastel-like colors and strong neoclassical influences that are re-imagined with Persia’s innate sense of precision, balance and proportion.
