About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1880-1900, this 10×14 antique Persian Kashan rug is a rare and regal Mohtasham rug—a master weaver celebrated among the most venerated of his period for such distinguished creations as this. On the Design: Tones of beige-brown, red, teal blue, and chartreuse green underscore the intricate play of medallion and all over style floral patterns this piece enjoys in its field and borders alike. Admirers of the craft will appreciate both the elaborate nature and finesse of the pattern, and especially considering the scale in which both were executed—the mark of a deft hand to achieve in this large size. The subtle varieties of color, the sense of movement they lend such an elegant illustration, and the overall grandeur of the design all speak to a one-of-a-kind masterpiece of its provenance. Condition: This antique Mohtasham rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—an extremely collectible choice for the connoisseur and designer alike.
