Beautiful Gray Background Antique Khorassan Persian Rug 49084, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rug, Circa Rug: 1900 – True to the traditional style of many beautiful antique Persian Khorassan rugs, this masterpiece showcases the highly decorative qualities of antique Turkish Ouhsak rugs while employing the Persian rug quality of knotting that enabled the weaver to define a finer degree of detail. Negative space abounds, allowing the viewer to travel between each foreground motif at an easier pace. Many of the classic rug design and pattern motifs are visible in all varieties of ancient antqiue Persian area rugs and carpets, and the expressive use of contrasting forms allows each individual element to stand out in an even more defined way. Round floral blossoms, bountiful pomegranates and rigid shrubs can be seen throughout the heart of the rug and the largest border, unifying the landscape and establishing a delightful composition for the natural scenery within.
