1920's Persian Lilihan Garden Panel Carpet with Modern Style

About the Item

77565 Antique Persian Lilihan Rug, 11'06 x 17'04. This exquisite hand-knotted wool Persian Lilihan rug, with its captivating Garden Panel Design (also known as the Khesti pattern), epitomizes the timeless beauty and intricate craftsmanship of Persian weaving traditions. The Lilihan rug’s composition is dominated by an elaborate ogee lattice, a repeating, flowing design that creates a sense of depth and movement within the field. Each ogee shape is adorned with vibrant floral clusters, featuring bursts of deep blues, lavish reds, and earth-tone accents, evoking the lush imagery of a blooming garden, where every petal and leaf seems to come alive with color and detail. Flanking the central field is a cartouche border, an elegant framing element that enhances the Persian rug's structure and sense of balance. The ornamental border is delicately enclosed by both inner and outer floral meander guard bands, which serve to contain the beauty of the central tableau while enhancing the overall harmony of the design. The floral meanders, meticulously woven, provide an intricate contrast to the geometric form of the central lattice, giving the Lilihan rug a dynamic visual texture and an almost sculptural quality. The combination of geometric and organic patterns speaks to the skill of the weaver and the enduring appeal of Persian artistry. The Lilihan rug’s rich color palette, with its bold yet refined blend of sumptuous crimson, midnight navy blue, and warm bronze, carries a sense of both vibrancy and elegance. The garden imagery and the meticulous attention to detail in the weaving suggest a deep reverence for nature and beauty—an aesthetic that transcends time. The warm, earthy tones in the field contrast beautifully with the cooler hues in the borders, creating a balanced yet striking effect that would add sophistication and charm to any space. The rug’s design is a perfect example of the fusion of cultural heritage with the art of weaving, making it a timeless treasure for any collector or connoisseur of Persian textiles. This antique Persian Lilihan rug is not only a work of art but also a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian rug-making. It invites admiration and awe, whether displayed in a contemporary setting or in a more traditional space. The Lilihan rug’s visual complexity, combined with its graceful, organic motifs and harmonious color scheme, brings a sense of warmth, elegance, and history to nearly any room it inhabits. As a focal point of design, it effortlessly complements a wide range of interior styles, from classical to modern, offering an enduring connection to the past and a touch of luxurious artistry for the present. Rendered in variegated shades of red, navy blue, royal blue, bronze, raspberry red, rose, and dark green, gold, and maroon with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear.
