Vintage Persian Isfahan Rug, Persia – Crafted in the heart of Persia, this outstanding vintage medallion carpet redoubles the beauty of Esfahan’s superfluous curvilinear designs. The spectacular field showcases a graceful scalloped medallion accompanied by fantastically detailed designs knotted in silk and wool. Floral garlands create an elaborate inset design that has a cosmopolitan, almost European, flavor. Feathery saz leaves, lush blossoms and soft green leaflets festoon the saturated cerulean field, which displays fabulously nuanced blue-green undertones. Wide taupe borders appointed with exquisite floral decorations embrace the dark, heavily embellished field. Aurelian octofoils and stunning urns filled with lavish bouquets alternate within the repeating border pattern. These magnificent ornaments are accompanied by filamentous vine scrolls, dimensional leaflets and coved edge pieces that reflect the brilliant sapphire blues that give the field its regal aura.
