About the Item

61164 Vintage Persian Qum Rug, 07'03 x 09'06. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Qum rug is a breathtaking testament to the artistry and tradition of Persian weaving, showcasing a sophisticated interplay of intricate patterns and rich hues. The central medallion, rendered in an elegant aubergine, anchors the composition with graceful floral motifs that radiate outward in symmetrical harmony. Encircled by delicate arabesques and vine scrolls, the medallion rests atop a soft golden field adorned with a profusion of finely drawn botanicals. The masterful balance of contrast between the dark medallion and the golden expanse lends a sense of grandeur to this exquisite piece. The golden tan field, characteristic of Qum's refined artistry, is alive with an intricate tableau of floral sprays, palmettes, and swirling tendrils. These delicate details are woven with precision, reflecting the extraordinary skill of Qum's weavers who gained prominence in the early 20th century. Every inch of the field brims with intentional artistry, where organic motifs flow seamlessly, capturing the essence of nature’s abundance. Subtle touches of cerulean blue, beige, and brown emerge gracefully against the warm golden background, enriching the rug’s visual depth and timeless elegance. Surrounding the central field, a series of intricate borders enhances the Qum rug's opulence and structure. The main border features an elaborate floral meander with stylized blossoms, framed by multiple meandering guard bands filled with delicate rosettes, geometric details, and continuous scrolling vines. These layers of borders evoke a sense of formality and balance, guiding the eye effortlessly across the composition. The border’s golden tones, accented with midnight and soft pastel colors, harmonize beautifully with the central medallion and field, completing the rug’s cohesive design. Steeped in cultural heritage and artistry, this vintage Persian Qum rug reflects the city’s renowned weaving tradition, where fine knotting and artistic innovation converge. Hand-knotted with the utmost care and precision, it is not only a piece of history but also a timeless work of art that transcends generations. Perfect for enhancing formal living spaces, grand foyers, or traditional interiors, this woven wonder invites the beholder to appreciate its intricate craftsmanship and enduring elegance. A true collector’s piece, it serves as a reminder of Persian artistry at its finest, embodying both beauty and legacy.
