About the Item

76039 Vintage Persian Khorassan Rug with Zir Khaki Vase Design, 09'10 x 13'00. This exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Khorassan rug invites you into a timeless tableau of artistry and cultural heritage. Its grand composition features an ornate central medallion, intricately adorned with floral motifs and captivating hues that evoke the elegance of Persian craftsmanship. The medallion anchors the rug’s design, seamlessly extending into an all-over Zir Khaki vase pattern. Each vase emerges as a testament to Persian symbolism, representing abundance, beauty, and the flourishing of life. The vivid interplay of colors, from deep indigos to soft creams, amplifies the visual depth and sophistication of this masterpiece. The border of the Khorassan rug is an enchanting frame that binds the narrative within. Large-scale stylized irises and palmettes sweep across the edges, forming a rhythmic and harmonious cadence that enhances the central field's allure. These motifs, celebrated in Persian art for their symbolic connection to purity and immortality, create a serene yet striking balance. The inner border adds another layer of intrigue, showcasing a series of Persian faces peering into the field—a nod to the region’s rich storytelling tradition and the eternal connection between art and its creators. The spandrels in each corner tell their own compelling story, composed of a majestic vase flanked by two elegantly depicted birds. This pairing draws upon ancient Persian iconography, where birds symbolize freedom and divine connection. The meticulous rendering of these elements, combined with the masterful use of color, evokes a sense of movement and life, as if the vases are continually nurturing the flourishing garden of the field. This intricate detail reflects the ingenuity and dedication of Khorassan’s artisans, whose work is renowned for its balance of technical precision and artistic expression. As a whole, this Persian Khorassan rug transcends its function as a decorative object, standing as a woven narrative of Persian culture and history. The Zir Khaki vase design, deeply rooted in the artistic traditions of the region, breathes life into its surface, making it not only a visual feast but also a tangible connection to the past. Whether placed in a grand hall or a quiet study, this rug offers both aesthetic grandeur and the warmth of heritage, making it a cherished addition to nearly any space. Rendered in variegated shades of ink blue, navy blue, sky blue, apricot, peach, red, sage, olive, brown, tan, ecru, taupe, stone grey, dark pink, vanilla, cream, beige, saffron and burnt orange with other accent colors.
