About the Item

77377 Antique Persian Kerman Rug, 12'10 x 15'02. Kerman rugs with allover flowers, known as vase carpets, are characteristic of the 16th and 17th centuries. They feature an allover pattern of stylized flowers, oversized palmettes, and vases placed throughout the field. These rugs are made in the city of Kerman, located in south-central Iran, renowned for its rich tradition of carpet weaving. Characterized by intricate allover floral patterns, including various types of flowers, vines, and foliage meticulously woven into the fabric, Kerman rugs are known for their symmetrical and balanced designs, exuding elegance and beauty. Prized for their fine craftsmanship, high-quality wool or silk materials, vibrant color palettes, and durable construction, Kerman rugs are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Persian rugs. Timeless elegance converges with stately decadence in this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Kerman rug, where the warm beige backdrop serves as the canvas for an intricate allover floral pattern. Adorned with elaborate palmettes, acanthus scrolls, undulating cloudband motifs, blue bell flowers, leaflets, morning glories, delicate floral sprigs, hyacinth, leafy tendrils, and rinceau, the rug's design mirrors the lushness of England's gardens and the vibrant blooms bursting forth. As if capturing the essence of spring's vibrant palette, this Persian Kerman rug transports viewers to a realm where nature's beauty flourishes. The Kerman rug's main border, embellished with arabesque Herati motifs, is flanked by a series of inner and outer floral meandering guard borders, creating a lavish enclosure that adds to the formality of the composition. Drawing inspiration from the formal gardens of English Manors and the idyllic landscapes of the Cotswold Countryside, this antique Persian Kerman rug invites observers to immerse themselves in the splendor of nature's awakening. Reflecting a time when the earth unfurls its grandeur, the Persian area rug evokes a sense of wonder and appreciation for the intricate beauty found in every bloom and tendril. With its depiction of nature's abundance, this picturesque tableau of floral motifs invites exploration and admiration. As viewers behold the rug's intricate details and vibrant hues, they are transported to a realm where the beauty of the natural world reigns supreme, beckoning all to revel in its magnificence and timeless allure.
