Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Origin: Persia, Circa: 1900 – Here is a truly wonderful antique rug – a Kerman carpet made in Persia some time around the turn of the twentieth century. This rug represents something genuinely special, and is a testament to the artisans who produced it. A wonderful piece, this rug possesses many of the qualities most sought after by collectors and experts, and would bring beauty and sophistication to any home. Woven with royal blue, red and Kerman’s unique coral pinks, this delicate carpet features a dramatic lobed medallion with pendants in a style reminiscent of Sheikh Safi patterns. Both the borders and guard bands feature flower clusters and trailing branches in complementary colors that give the ogival corner spandrels a dynamic presence. Simply put, this rug is a remarkable piece of work. An intricate and sophisticated design and composition combine to make this Persian rug something more than a decorative piece: they combine to make it a veritable work of art.
