Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and the Early 20th Century Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles Artistically Handwoven in Persia, the Caucasus, Anatolia, and Around the World
This vintage Persian Nain area rug from the 3rd quarter of the 1900s is a stunning example of classic Persian artistry. Featuring a detailed floral pattern and a prominent central medallion, the rug is set on a soft cream field with a matching cream border, exuding warmth and elegance.
The intricate floral design is brought to life with a rich palette of navy blue, French blue, green, red, caramel, and brown, while the French blue corner spandrels add a delicate contrast with cream-toned detailing. At the center, a caramel medallion glows with refined beauty, accented by navy, pale blue, and red tones—all enhanced by the generous use of silk highlights.
Hand-knotted with a wool pile and cotton foundation, the rug’s silk accents add exceptional vibrancy and a striking three-dimensional effect, especially in the medallion and floral motifs. This is a true masterwork from the esteemed Nain workshops, offering timeless sophistication and collectible quality.
