About the Item

Beautiful late 19th Century Persian Kurdish Bidjar area rug/runner. Woven in the late 1800s, this rug is a true testament to the legendary craftsmanship of the Kurdish people and the "iron-like" durability for which Bidjar rugs are renowned. This beautiful rug features an exquisite and exceptionally detailed allover pattern of small flower forms, which is a variation of the paisley motif. In many oriental cultures, the paisley is considered the “seed of life,” symbolizing fertility, eternity, and the universe. This meaningful and intricate design covers the entire field, creating a visually captivating and harmonious tapestry. The rug's main field is a soft and luminous pale yellow, with the small flowers and accents rendered in a harmonious palette of creamy ivory, delicate pink, and serene blue. The composition is beautifully framed by a primary border in a lovely cream color, which provides a subtle and elegant contrast to the field. The sub-borders, in a rich rust red, add a layer of warmth and depth, perfectly tying the rug's palette together. Its timeless design and exceptional quality ensure it will be a cherished centerpiece for generations to come.

19th-Century Persian Kerman Lavar in Floral Pattern in Ivory, Burgundy, Green
Located in Barrington, IL
Observe the profound beauty and masterful craftsmanship of this magnificent late 19th Century Persian Kerman Lavar Room Size Rug. Hailing from the renowned village of Lavar, near the city of Kerman on the edge of the great desert in Southeast Persia, this rug is a testament to why Lavar carpets are world-renowned for their beauty in design and color. This exquisite rug features a gorgeous and intricately designed central floral medallion, beautifully set against a luminous ivory color background. The central medallion, a stunning work of art in itself, is rendered in a deep navy blue and caramel with vibrant red floral designs. This focal point is surrounded by a rich tapestry of floral and paisley designs that fill the field. The paisley forms, in alternating shades of red and pink, are gracefully separated by delicate cypress trees in pale green, a traditional motif symbolizing eternal life. The rug's captivating color combination is a testament to the artisan's skill, with a palette that includes vibrant red, serene pale yellow, and a deep midnight blue, all harmoniously woven together. This rug is not just a floor covering but a piece of history, showcasing the masterful weaving techniques and artistic sensibilities of the late 1800s. The village of Lavar's location on the edge of the desert is often cited as a source of inspiration for the weavers to create vibrant, intricate floral designs, bringing nature's beauty into their art.

Vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi Rug in Geometric Pattern in Ivory, Burgundy, Gray
Located in Barrington, IL
Discover a true masterpiece of Persian weaving with this magnificent Mid-20th Century Vintage Persian Tabriz "Mahi" Room-Size Rug, meticulously hand-knotted in the 3rd quarter of the 1900s by one of the finest artisan workshops in the city of Tabriz, Northwest Persia. Tabriz rugs are renowned for their exceptional fineness, intricate detailing, and sophisticated designs, and this piece is a brilliant embodiment of that tradition. This captivating rug is highly distinguished by its very rare and highly desirable ivory color field, which provides a luminous and expansive canvas. This serene background brings the timeless beauty of the classic "Mahi" (or Herati) design to life, a celebrated pattern known for its repeating rosette-within-diamond motif, often referred to as "fish" due to its graceful flow. A striking red border elegantly frames the composition, creating a beautiful contrast that enhances the rug's visual impact and classical grandeur. Adding further depth and unique character, the corners are subtly adorned with harmonious accents in both dark and light chocolate tones, which beautifully complement the primary colors. While the iconic "Mahi" design is often copied and adapted in various weaving centers both within and outside Persia, it is a significant challenge to find a true masterpiece that captures the consummate refinement, quality, and authentic spirit exemplified by this beautiful Tabriz rug. Its exceptional craftsmanship, rare color palette, and revered design make it a standout piece.
