About the Item

21697 Antique Persian Karabagh Pictorial Rug of the King and Court 04'09 x 06'04. Persian Karabakh pictorial rugs and tableau carpets are specialized forms of Persian rugs known for their elaborate and scenic designs rather than traditional geometric patterns. Originating from the Karabakh region, these rugs depict landscapes, historical events, and daily life scenes, often crafted from wool or silk. Tableau carpets, designed primarily for wall display, feature artistic, religious, or cultural imagery with a high knot density for detailed representation. Both are celebrated for their intricate craftsmanship and aesthetic value, serving as both functional art pieces and cultural symbols. This hand-knotted antique Persian Karabakh pictorial rug beautifully captures a Persian royal court scene, featuring members of royalty dressed in traditional Persian attire. They are depicted sitting peacefully in a courtyard, engaged in the serene activity of sipping celestial tea. This tranquil setting is brought to life with meticulous attention to detail and a rich palette of contrasting colors that enhance the visual depth of the scene. The craftsmanship of this Persian tableau is highlighted by the precision in the tiny details and the subtle gradations of color, creating a captivating visual effect. Each element of the scene is finely outlined, allowing the figures and their surroundings to stand out vividly against the background. The use of contrasting colors not only adds to the allure but also contributes to the overall harmony of the design. Enclosed by a thin border, this woven wonder gains a sense of order and definition, framing the intricate artwork effectively. Whether used as a wall hanging or a tapestry, this antique Karabakh pictorial rug transforms any space, imparting a sense of history and elegance. It creates an atmosphere that feels well-traveled and effortlessly inviting, making it a standout piece in any collection. Rendered in variegated shades of tan, pink, beige, red, black, rose, lavender, gray, and taupe with other accent colors. Desirable Age Wear. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 04'09 x 06'04. Date: 1910s. Early 20th Century.
