1910's Persian Kerman Carpet with Modern Style

About the Item

61202 Antique Persian Kerman Rug 11'04 x 16'11. A garden of paradise unfurls across this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Kerman rug, a luminous testament to the opulence of Early 20th Century craftsmanship. Every inch of its sprawling field blossoms with life, where scrolling vines, palmettes, and curvilinear florals bloom in harmonious rhythm. Rendered in rich hues of ruby red, sapphire blue, celadon, ivory, and verdant green, the intricate composition evokes the Persian concept of the eternal garden, bagh-e behesht, a tableau of divine beauty and balance. This Persian Kerman rug exhibits a dense allover millefleurs-style floral pattern with meticulous symmetry, layering, and the clarity of drawing, with crisp floral bouquets and finely etched foliage. This Persian masterpiece embraces an allover design, allowing its arabesque latticework and mirrored harmony to mesmerize from every angle. The profusion of stylized blossoms—roses, lotus, and blossoms in full flourish—are meticulously knotted into a field so dense and refined, it reads like illuminated poetry in silk and wool. The field’s saturation of color and detail conjures the splendor of Safavid-era manuscript illumination, each botanical form a flourish of visual verse. The Kerman rug's generous borders serve not merely as framing devices but as narrative thresholds. A sinuous main border unfurls with monumental lotus blossoms, palmettes, and cloudband-like elements, flanked by inner and outer triple guard bands adorned with rosette vines and geometric rhythms. This ornate frame creates a sense of enclosure, like the protective garden walls found in classical Persian estate gardens, sheltering the riotous bloom of the interior within. Woven in the fabled looms of Kerman, a region long celebrated for its textile artistry and imperial commissions, this carpet stands as both a cultural artifact and an aesthetic triumph. Its refined palette, delicate weave, and romantic floral composition speak to the era’s synthesis of traditional Persian elegance and the emerging influence of European Art Nouveau tastes. In its enduring grace, this antique Kerman rug invites the viewer not only to admire, but to wander through a realm where time slows and beauty lingers. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool.

1900's Antique Persian Lavar Kerman Carpet with Modern Style
Located in Dallas, TX
78354 Antique Persian Kerman Rug, 11'02 x 16'07. Woven in the poetic silence of early 20th century Persia, this hand knotted wool antique Lavar Kerman rug is a masterful ode to elegance and craftsmanship. Its velvety navy field, like a starlit garden under a midnight sky, blooms with a cascade of florals, scrolling vines, and radiant rosettes—each petal and palmette tenderly hand-knotted to form a visual symphony of order and beauty. In this formal garden of wool, celestial medallions float like full moons across the field, each ringed with palmette crowns and latticed in delicate filigree, reflecting both cosmic rhythm and earthly grace. The heart of the rug pulses with the lyricism of Persian romanticism—delicate tendrils curve like verses in calligraphy, winding gracefully among sprigs of Shah Abbasi blossoms, peonies, and scrolling islimi. Every flourish seems guided by a painter’s hand, and indeed, Lavar Kerman weavers were known not merely as artisans, but as artists of the loom. Their deft use of color—soft rose, emerald green, sapphire, and golden saffron—creates a harmonic interplay that enchants the eye and soothes the soul, much like a verse from Hafez spoken at dusk. Surrounding this rhapsodic field is a wide border, its backdrop the tender blush of aged parchment, upon which an arcaded vine-and-palmette design unfolds like illuminated manuscript margins. Vines dance upward in rhythmic scrolls, each curve entwined with floral clusters that evoke Persian gardens, both cultivated and imagined. Guard borders of meandering blossoms and protective motifs enclose the entire composition, as if to preserve the timeless beauty it holds within. This antique Persian rug is not merely a floor covering—it is a historical tapestry, echoing the splendor of Qajar-era refinement and the refined flourish of Lavar Kerman’s most illustrious workshops. Its stately presence, exceptional design, and painterly palette mark it as a work of grace and nobility. To own such a piece is to cradle a chapter of Persian artistry, lovingly passed down through generations, its woven poetry still whispering softly through the fibers of time. Rendered in variegated shades of navy blue, burgundy, raspberry pink, tan, pink, sky blue, and beige with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Discoloration. Some Spots.
