Kerman Lavar 1380

A magnificent late 19th century oversized Persian Kerman Lavar carpet of the highest order — woven in the fourth quarter of the 1800s during the golden age of Kerman carpet production, when the workshops of Lavar near Kerman were producing carpets that would be collected by royalty and aristocracy across Europe and America. At the heart of the carpet rests an exquisitely detailed central medallion, delicately articulated against a serene antique ivory and soft cream field.

The luminous background is enriched with refined accents of crimson red, turquoise, blush pink, sky blue, golden yellow, and soft green, creating a sophisticated and harmonious color palette of remarkable depth. The striking red corner spandrels are intricately adorned with floral motifs in brown, black, and ivory, providing dramatic contrast and visual balance. Every element of this composition reveals the extraordinary technical skill and artistic sensitivity of Kerman's master weavers — a carpet that is at once a historical document and a living work of art.
