About the Item
Antique Persian Kirman Rug – A Masterwork of Persian Botanical Artistry
Size: 12'9" × 19'0" (388 × 579 cm)
This magnificent antique Persian Kirman rug is a breathtaking example of traditional Persian textile mastery. Woven around the turn of the 20th century, the rug encapsulates the elegance and sophistication of Kirman’s renowned workshop tradition, celebrated for its artistic intricacy and refined palette.
At the heart of this composition is a lush garden of floral motifs, expertly orchestrated into a sprawling, symmetrical field of blossoming vines, palmettes, and stylized shrubs. The interplay of soft rose, cornflower blue, ivory, and deep indigo is handled with painterly precision, lending the piece an aura of timeless beauty. Scattered among the botanical flourishes are charming wildlife and avian figures, a hallmark of Kirman rugs from this period, adding narrative depth and visual delight.
The wide, intricate border frames the central field with a flowing arrangement of arabesques and cartouches, enhancing the rug’s formal balance while echoing the florid interior. The overall composition is rich yet remarkably harmonious, demonstrating the Kirman weavers’ extraordinary sense of rhythm, proportion, and design sophistication.
Crafted from high-grade wool, the rug possesses a luminous surface and supple handle. Its condition is excellent for its age, with the colors having mellowed beautifully over time, adding to its antique charm.
Whether placed in a formal setting or used to elevate a modern interior, this antique Kirman rug is not only a decorative showpiece but also a collector-worthy textile artifact imbued with history and Persian cultural heritage.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
