About the Item

Early 20th century Persian Kirman navy blue and camel wool rug Size: 13'8" × 16'4" (416 × 497 cm) This antique Persian carpet is a paragon of the venerable Kirman craft. It’s magnificent and utterly tasteful main field bears an all-over botanical design of meandering flowers and vines, referring to the classic oriental motif called the tree of life, indicating hope for eternal life. The field is enclosed within a series of opulent borders kept in the spirit of the main design with palmettes, medallions, paisley motifs and flowering climbers. The reference to life after death seems to be confirmed by the expertly matched color palette, basing on a profound tone of navy blue, the color alluding to the afterlife, with the pattern executed in a subtle shade of camel. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. 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.
