About the Item

The 19th century Persian Kashan library rug with a Vase “Tree of Life” design with birds on branches elevating towards the heavens. The field is a very rare and desirable ivory color. The gorgeous border is in a rust red color with the birds design throughout the border. The rug is so finely woven and a very short pile and it feels like a fine textile than a hand-woven rug; It would be and would be great as a tapestry wall art or displayed on the floor. The Kashan “library” rug was woven in an artisan workshop in Kashan and is similar to the rugs from the workshop of master Mohtashem. Having a unique size and design in addition to the rare ivory color field and being woven in one of the best workshops make this truly a woven masterpiece to admire and enjoy.

Early 20th Century Persian Kashan Area Rug in Ivory, Navy Blue, Red, Green, Pink
Located in Barrington, IL
Exceptional vintage Persian Kashan area rug, meticulously hand-knotted circa the early 1900s. This exquisite piece is truly distinguished by its rare and coveted ivory field color, a luminous canvas that immediately sets it apart. It exemplifies the pinnacle of traditional Kashan weaving, renowned for its intricate designs and the use of exceptionally high-quality, radiant wool that reflects the richness and sophistication of Persian textile artistry. The central field of this magnificent rug showcases a graceful all-over floral motif, a symphony of delicate blooms and flowing arabesques rendered in soft French blue, delicate pink, and rich red tones. These hues are beautifully harmonized with a finely drawn central medallion that commands attention, presented in deep navy and vibrant crimson. Further enhancing its visual allure, subtle floral flourishes in charming baby blue and creamy ivory add layers of intricate detail and visual interest throughout the design. A deep navy blue border elegantly frames the entire composition, creating a striking and sophisticated contrast that enhances the rug's inherent symmetry and grandeur. The interplay of the rare ivory field, the nuanced floral palette, and the bold navy frame results in a truly captivating masterpiece.
