A Stunning Decorative Shabby Chic Vintage Persian Joshagan Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Vintage Mid Century – This beautiful shabby chic antique Persian carpet uses earth tones and would make a charming addition to an informal setting. Joshagan is located in Central Persia between Qum and Isfahan, but its carpets have a unique style that is recognizable and stands out from the carpets of neighboring cities.

While other antique carpets from the Safavid period have been copied in other cities and parts of the world, carpets from Joshagan are rarely copied. The exception to this is a few rare Indian rugs. This means that the characteristic designs have remained the same as they were 500 years ago. One of the features that makes Joshagan carpets stand out is that there is little variability in the designs, making them easy to distinguish.

Joshagan carpets are known for their designs that are based on diamonds, often filled with floral motifs, as with this example. The design uses thick and thin lines in the outlining. It also uses layers of diamonds within diamonds to create a level of complexity that goes beyond those produced in neighboring cities. The Persian Joshagan rug uses a range of colors using a palette, including reds, blues, greens and ivories. These features are what give this carpet its unique features and character.

This Oriental carpet represents one type of carpet that is typically produced by this tribe. The floral designs are contained within defined diamond shapes. This led to this type of carpet being referred to as a “potted” carpet. It created an all-over design that has a level of complexity different from carpets found in the neighboring cities. Joshagan carpets are unique in that they use a carefully planned out formal design, but they still retain an organic, tribal quality.

Persian Joshagan rugs are known to be high-quality, and although they are not the rarest of designs, they are still relatively scarce. Joshagan is one of the oldest cities that has been continuously weaving carpets since the 16th century. This semi antique carpet has a warm and cozy feel. It would be the perfect carpet to define a space within an open floor plan or to define an area for conversation. If you are looking for something a bit unique, this handsome carpet is the perfect piece.
