About the Item
79270 Antique Persian Kashan Rug, 04'06 x 06'10. A regal testament to the opulence of classical Persian weaving, this hand-knotted wool antique Kashan rug unfolds like a garden carved into the fabric of time—an Eden composed of color, craftsmanship, and cultural memory. From its radiant central medallion, anchored by quatrefoil pendants at either end, to the layered arabesques that trace its contours outward, every inch of this masterpiece bespeaks sophistication and symbolic depth. The sumptuous crimson field, saturated yet softened by the passage of generations, acts as a stage upon which the dance of botanical forms performs in perfect harmony.
Around the exquisite medallion, a lyrical profusion of lotus blossoms, peonies, lilies, tulips, hyacinths, rosettes, and irises bloom in rhythmic repetition, each with its own mythic resonance: rebirth and immortality, youthful spring and matrimonial joy, power and prosperity, purity and spiritual transcendence. Together, they transform the rug into a woven prayer—a meditation on the cycles of life and the divine order of beauty. These exclusive floral forms are not merely decorative but narrate a deeper story of paradise regained, echoing the garden culture of Kashan and its roots in signature Persian philosophical and poetic tradition.
The elaborate corner spandrels mirror the medallion’s intricacy, their arabesque tracery embracing the field with symmetrical grace, like illuminated manuscript margins framing a sacred text. The luminous harmony of form and proportion evokes the refined aesthetics of the Qajar era, when Kashan’s master weavers cultivated an art of timeless elegance and symbolic storytelling. This is an exceptional work of art for connoisseurs of nuance—where each detail invites the eye to linger, to wonder, and to understand the cultural memory embedded in every precious knot.
A striking navy blue floral vase border encircles the composition, its urns overflowing with blossoms that signal abundance and spiritual generosity. This majestic frame, paired with flanking meandering floral guard bands, offers a final crescendo of visual splendor—grounding the entire piece with a sense of balance and sacred geometry. Rare, storied, and breathtaking, this antique Kashan is more than an heirloom—it is a living legacy of Persian artistic excellence, a work of heart and hand that transcends its function to become a vessel of meaning and prestige in the modern world.
