Discover the unparalleled beauty and refined artistry of this Mid-20th Century Vintage Persian Qum Area Rug, meticulously hand-knotted circa the mid-1900s. This exceptional rug is a testament to the supreme craftsmanship for which Qum rugs are renowned, showcasing a classic and sophisticated floral medallion pattern.
At its heart lies one of the most unique and truly beautiful oval pendant central medallions, rendered in a brilliant and captivating red color. This striking medallion is elegantly set against a luminous ivory color background, creating a harmonious and inviting field. The rug is gracefully framed by a luxurious indigo palmette and meandering vine border, adding another layer of intricate detail and visual depth.
What truly elevates this rug is its exquisite construction: a plush wool pile meticulously woven onto a smooth and durable silk foundation. Further enhancing its allure are delicate silk highlights meticulously incorporated throughout both the field and the border, catching the light and adding a subtle shimmer and luxurious texture. This rug's combination of a classic design pattern with superior materials and vibrant, nuanced colors makes it a highly desirable piece.
