Description

Magnificent early 20th century Persian Kashan area rug, meticulously hand-knotted in a floral pattern. From the esteemed workshop in the city of Kashan, renowned for producing some of Persia's most sophisticated and finely woven carpets, this piece is a testament to the enduring legacy of master craftsmanship.

The rug features a breathtaking floral design, gracefully unfolding across a deep and rich navy blue field. At its heart lies a luminous central medallion in a creamy ivory hue, with its very center highlighted in a delicate French blue. Complementing this central motif, the corners are adorned with striking red spandrels, adding a vibrant contrast to the field.

A unique and captivating element of this rug is the subtle abrash in French blue/baby blue, showcasing the beautiful, natural color variations that result from traditional dyeing methods and the passage of time, adding immense depth and character. The intricate design colors throughout the field and border are a harmonious symphony of soft pink, classic red, creamy ivory, verdant green, and various captivating blues, all masterfully combined to create a visually rich and balanced composition.
