1940's Persian Farahan Carpet with Modern Style

About the Item

61368 Vintage Persian Farahan Rug, 04'06 x 06'07. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Farahan rug masterfully combines timeless elegance with a refined sense of formality, drawing inspiration from the traditional aesthetics associated with Ivy League sensibilities. At its heart lies an intricate sky-blue central medallion, gracefully anchored by trefoil pendants at either end, radiating balance and harmony. The saturated red field serves as the perfect canvas for an allover pattern of stylized florals, rhythmic foliage, and rectilinear botanical motifs, creating a dynamic interplay of organic and geometric elements. The ivory corner spandrels mirror the central design, adding symmetry and visual cohesion to the overall composition. The richly decorated borders of this Farahan rug enhance its heavily detailed design. A navy blue rosette border encloses the field, adorned with delicately rendered floral motifs that add depth and dimension. This main border is flanked by inner and outer guard bands in a soft sky-blue hue, each featuring floral buds that provide a gentle contrast to the rug’s bold red and navy tones. The finishing touch is a striking sawtooth guard stripe in red and navy blue, introducing an additional layer of structure and precision to the design. Steeped in history and cultural depth, this Persian Farahan rug exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship and enduring beauty of traditional Persian weaving techniques. Its bold color palette, featuring vibrant reds, calming blues, and crisp ivory accents, offers a perfect balance of artistic finesse and approachability. This versatile rug effortlessly bridges the gap between classic and contemporary interiors, making it a distinctive addition to any space. Whether gracing a formal library, enhancing a grand foyer, or serving as a statement piece in a modern setting, this Persian Farahan rug exudes a unique character that resonates with its storied past. Its intricate patterns and harmonious design celebrate the artistry of Persian rug-making, while its tailored aesthetic lends an air of sophistication to a variety of interior styles, from preppy traditional to eclectic modern.
