An early 20th century Persian Bakshaish Rug containing a spiraling all-over design on an orange-colored ground with stunning predominant blue and camel accents. 7'9'' x 9'8'' Bakshaish weavers employed both soft orange and soft blue accents for the base color of the field, with the use of ivory or camelhair grouns being particularly rare and beloved. Exceptional blues are a hallmark of these antique Bakshaish rugs with this being a fine example. Muted salmons, rich corals, greens and yellow accents can also be found e. Antique Bakshaish carpets have a structure similar to others of the Heriz group, although their weave is usually somewhat finer and patterns are more tribal. There are no so many authentic Bakshaishs around today as they are one of the more sought after decorative and collectible persian rugs.
