This magnificent 19th century oversized Persian Kerman Lavar rug is an exceptional example of Persian textile artistry at its peak. Hand-knotted with extraordinary finesse, this masterpiece showcases the renowned intricacy and elegance of Lavar weaving. The Art Nouveau floral design—reminiscent of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s iconic Wisteria Lamp (circa 1901–1902)—is set within a soft cream field and framed by a richly detailed border.

The rug’s central medallion anchors an ethereal composition of flowing florals and scrolling vines in a harmonious palette of turquoise blue, jade green, rich red, and warm brown. Every element of this piece reveals both the technical mastery and artistic vision characteristic of the finest 19th century Persian rugs.

A true collector’s piece, this rug not only serves as a sophisticated design statement, but also as a cultural artifact that bridges the worlds of Persian craftsmanship and Western decorative movements. Ideal for grand interiors, galleries, and curated design projects seeking timeless elegance and rarity.
