A stunning 19th-century Persian Kashan room-size rug featuring the classical Shah Abbas floral design, expertly woven on an elegant ivory field. This masterful piece showcases the traditional "sickle and leaf" motif, executed in a breathtaking array of colors that include navy blue, baby blue, soft green, pink, golden yellow, and warm brown. At the heart of the composition lies a beautifully detailed central medallion in layered shades of blue and cream, serving as a refined focal point. The navy border, adorned with intricate floral motifs, is framed by a pale blue guard border that enhances the rug’s overall sophistication.
Though it shows minor wear in one corner, consistent with its age, the rug remains a captivating and cherished example of 19th-century Persian craftsmanship. A true work of art underfoot—ideal for elegant living rooms, heritage interiors, or collectors seeking authenticity and history in their décor.
