Antique Persian Kerman Lavar Rug in Beige with Pictorials, from Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1910-1920, this 5x8 rug is a very special antique Persian Kerman Lavar piece with pictorial patterns. On the Design: Drawing on Persian Kerman Lavar rugs, this archaic piece of art exhibiting an old-world charm, features beige underscores rich and playful colors in a depiction of two men in chairs—possibly soldiers, given their particular formal attire—on opposite sides of floral patterns matching the reds and greens of field and border alike. Connoisseurs may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period. It’s a fine play of rustic motifs in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and its large size offers vast design applications today. Pictorial rugs of any provenance are always collectible, but this is among the few Kerman Lavar rugs we’ve seen in this size and sensibility, so it’s especially rare and clearly quite personal. Condition: This Antique Persian Kerman Lavar rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, with only mild wear consistent with its provenance. Ready for the floor, and especially suitable in wall-hanging projects as a tapestry as well.
