Fine Floral Design Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1900 – This gorgeous, almost sublime antique rug – a graceful and elegant antique Persian Kerman rug made in Persia some time around the turn of the twentieth century — is a stunning piece that is practically a study in grace and elegance. This lovely antique Kerman is extraordinary in its design of naturalistic branches of fruity foliage. Both the field and the border are covered with a sprawl of rose bouquets on a golden ground. They are rendered with the life-like detail of French Aubusson or Savonnerie carpets. Only the rhythmic repetition of the bouquets in rows as an allover design betrays the underlying Oriental aesthetic of the weavers. The transcendent and timeless beauty of this antique Persian rug speaks volumes to the talent and artistic brilliance of the master weavers responsible for its construction.
