Here is an absolutely dazzling antique Oriental rug: an astonishing Kerman rug from Persia, resplendent with an incredibly intricate pattern and a beautiful central medallion.

Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Persia, – Here is an absolutely remarkable antique rug – an antique Kerman rug from Persia that is absolutely resplendent with an incredibly elaborate, finely detailed pattern that radiates throughout the entirety of a large field. Rich, almost pastel tones of reds, greens, blues and yellows – to say nothing of the pink detail work that appears throughout – work together in this magnificent Persian carpet to a great effect, creating an overall impression of tremendous, dynamic energy. This impression is further emphasized and enhanced by the impressive, graphic central medallion: a striking floral composition, rendered in pinks, browns, blues, and yellows, this kaleidoscopic medallion both stands out against and complements the richly decorated field. This extraordinary level of detail is also present in the border of this very special antique Kerman rug, which frames the dynamism with further energy. An absolutely remarkable accomplishment, this antique Kerman rug is a genuine work of art.
