Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug, Country Of Origin: Persia, Circa date: Turn of the Twentieth Century – Here is a delightful antique rug. Perfectly aged, this antique Persian Bakshaish carpet showcases the free spirited nature of authentic tribal rugs. The high contrast blue on rust makes for a truly dynamic piece. The borders consist of a series of three equally proportioned bands that surround the field. Each of these is decorated with a repeating pattern, while the innermost band is colored an ivory shade that separates out the borders from the field. The field itself of this antique Persian rug is colored the same shade of rusty, ruddy orange that appears on the two outermost borders. Throughout the field, a series of delightful and exciting details appears, colored ivory and blue. These contrast powerfully with the ruddy tone that colors the filed, giving the entire carpet a sense of movement and reinforcing its powerful tribal aesthetic. A beautiful example, this antique Bakshash rug from Persia exemplifies its style.
