About the Item

An exceptional and rare 19th century oversized Persian Farahan rug, handwoven in Western Persia circa mid-1800s. This mansion-size antique rug features a highly sought-after allover Herati pattern, rendered with remarkable finesse in a rich navy blue field and accented by tones of brick red, soft green, pale yellow, ivory, and light blue. The elegant border introduces additional hues, including pink, red, cream, and golden yellow, creating a beautifully balanced and harmonious composition. Crafted during the height of the Farahan weaving tradition, this rug exemplifies the region’s signature aesthetic—fine knotting, delicate symmetry, and sophisticated color sensibility. Though the piece exhibits a short pile and some wear consistent with age, the clarity of design and vibrancy of color remain compelling, enhancing its authenticity and collectible appeal. Oversized Persian rugs from the 19th century are exceptionally rare, especially in the Farahan style, making this an outstanding opportunity for collectors, designers, and connoisseurs of antique Persian carpets. Its grand scale and refined visual presence make it an ideal centerpiece for luxury interiors, from traditional residences to curated contemporary spaces. This antique Farahan rug is a testament to Persian artistry, offering not only historical significance but also enduring elegance for the most discerning interiors.
