Extremely Fine Persian Habibian Wool and Silk Rug 5'5'' x 9'0''
About the Item
Close to the western edge of the great desert Dasht-e-Kavir, 200 kilometers east of Isfahan is the picturesque city of Nain. In the city one can see the characteristic clay buildings and one of the oldest mosques in Iran with remains from the 10th century.
Carpets from the city have a high reputation and are very popular. Material as well as the workmanship is of highest class and the knot density is high; often more than one million knots per square meter. The material in the more exclusive carpets consists of wool on a silk warp or silk in the warp as well as in the weft and pile.
Patterns with a medallion in the middle together with arabesques and floral motifs are common. The similarity to carpets from the nearby city of Isfahan is remarkable. One of the rarer type of Nain carpets on the market is the "Nain Tuteshk" and with an incredibly refined craftsmanship, they are much sought after. It sometimes occurs that carpets of slightly lower quality, with similar patterns and colors, are sold as Nain carpets.

- 1970s Signed Vintage Pastel Persian Shirfar Tabriz Wool and Fine Silk RugLocated in Dallas, TX21676 Vintage Persian Shirfar Tabriz Rug, 05'10 x 09'06. Crafted by the skilled hands of Shir Far, a revered master weaver hailing from Tabriz, Iran, this vintage Persian Tabriz rug embodies the essence of exquisite artistry and timeless elegance. Shir Far is renowned for his unparalleled craftsmanship, distinguished by high-quality materials, distinctive designs, and captivating color combinations. His hallmark, a signature cartouche inscription delicately centered within the guard border, serves as a testament to his mastery and attention to detail. Intricately designed with a touch of Rococo opulence, this hand-knotted wool and silk vintage Persian Shirfar Tabriz rug exudes an air of timeless elegance. The allover floral motif, delicately woven in soft pastel hues, evokes a sense of refined grandeur reminiscent of Rococo aesthetics. At the heart of the rug lies a cusped medallion, surrounded by a lush floral featuring blooming palmettes, curled sickle leaves, and cascading arabesque vines adorned with peonies, carnations, and lotus flowers.

Encapsulating the floral medallion is a border adorned with a variation of Rococo-inspired floral motifs, delicately intertwined with inner and outer botanical floral guard bands. The border exudes decadent beauty, framing the rug with a sense of lavishness and refinement characteristic of Rococo design. The dreamy color palette, with its soft pastel tones, adds to the rug's allure, creating a harmonious balance between elegance and subtlety.
