Kerman Lavar 1970

A magnificent Persian Kerman Lavar room size rug hailing from the renowned village of Lavar, near the city of Kerman on the edge of the great desert in Southeast Persia circa the early 20th Century.  This rug is a testament to why Lavar carpets are world-renowned for their beautiful design and masterful use of color.

The intricate floral motifs are beautifully set against a luminous ivory background, which provides a serene and elegant canvas. The design comes to life with a rich palette of vibrant crimson, delicate pink, verdant green, serene blue, and many other colors, all harmoniously woven together to create a tapestry of unparalleled detail and visual joy.

The composition is framed by a single, stunning crimson-colored border, which provides a powerful and elegant frame for the bustling floral field. This rug's exceptional craftsmanship and high-quality materials are evident in its remarkable condition, boasting a full pile that speaks to its durability and careful preservation.  Its pristine condition, vibrant colors, and timeless floral design ensure it will be a cherished focal point and a treasured heirloom for generations to come.
