78162 Antique Persian Kerman Rug, 11'02 x 13'09.

Embarking on a journey through time, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Kerman rug epitomizes the union of stately decadence and refined sophistication. Infused with historical significance, Kerman, a renowned weaving center since the seventeenth century, has graced the world with some of the finest Persian carpets. The ageless vase design woven into this piece encapsulates the enduring beauty of Kerman rugs, a tradition dating back to the Safavid period.

The abrashed red burgundy canvas serves as a rich tapestry for an allover pattern that unfolds like a chapter from Persian history. Enchanting floral arrangements, cypress trees, palmettes, and vases populate the field, echoing the design motifs celebrated in the grand Vase Carpets of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

An equally ornate floral vase border, enveloped by triple floral meander guard borders, forms a lush enclosure, bestowing a refreshing finish to this formal composition. Each knot in the rug holds a thread of history, a testament to Kerman's legacy of producing carpets of unparalleled quality and elegance.

Emanating opulence and grace with Old World charm, this antique Persian rug bears the marks of time, its history and patina telling stories of bygone eras. Authentically antique, it not only embodies the artistry of its creation but also stands as a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of Kerman. As it graces your space, it not only brings a touch of the past but also promises to continue its performance for decades to come, a living testament to the timelessness of Persian rug artistry.
