Antique Afshar Persian Rug Red Brown and Blue Geometric Pattern

About the Item

Hand knotted in wool originating from Persia circa 1890-1900, this antique Persian rug connotes an Afshar rug design, enjoying a distinctive coral-red colorway juxtaposed beautifully with the navy blue background notes. The subtle abrash complements the sense of movement among the intricate motifs, reflected flawlessly along a horizontal axis both in the tri-medallion field pattern and the intricate series of meandering borders favoring a beige-brown accent. A welcomed addition to the Antique & Vintage rug collection from Rug & Kilim. About the collection: Antique rugs have been in Josh’s resume since he began in the industry almost 40 years ago when he was already recognized for one of the largest oriental rug collections in the United States. Each piece in the internationally recognized volume was hand picked for rarity, and of course aesthetic and beauty, now complementing one of the widest varieties of Persian rug and Turkish rug collections with the utmost attention to individuality and care. Because of Josh’s position in the wholesale rug industry he’s been responsible for promoting a number of collections throughout history, from breathtaking signature Tabriz, Sultanabad, Kerman Lavar, Agra, and Oushak classics to the more unsung jewels of the luxury industry. Vintage has also been synonymous with who we are since our beginning, particularly for our unparalleled Kilim collection, but with the rise of midcentury collection the term vintage carpet has become very popular—especially exciting because often times many of the vintage carpets have also been treated, washed, dyed over, sheared, and modified—and has created a very successful category. We’re especially very proud of our vintage Kilims and Turkish rugs curated for our expansive collection of both area rugs and runners alike. Rug & Kilim maintains our own facilities for cleaning and restoration exclusively for carpets we’ve sold to ensure their lasting beauty and care long after a piece leaves our collection.
