A vision of understated elegance, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Kerman rug embodies a delicate balance between intricate artistry and soothing refinement. The soft, timeworn hues, enhanced by an antique wash, lend a sense of ethereal serenity, inviting one to step into a world of timeless beauty. Every element of this piece reflects the mastery of Persian weavers, whose centuries-old tradition of intricate detailing continues to captivate the eye.
At the heart of the composition lies a prominent hexagonal medallion, gracefully tethered to smaller hexagonal pendants, forming a seamless visual anchor within the field.

Encasing the field, crenelated fence borders create a sense of containment and rhythm, their precise repetition reinforcing the rug’s structural harmony. The interplay of faded blue hues and earthy neutrals conjures images of sunlit shores and tranquil waters, imbuing the piece with an organic, nature-inspired essence. The softened palette ensures versatility, allowing the rug to seamlessly integrate into both contemporary and classical interiors.
