Doris Leslie Blau Late 19th Century Large Persian Khorassan Rug

About the Item

Late 19th century large Persian Khorassan rug Size: 14'6" × 16'8" (441 × 508 cm) A highly-stylized late 19th century Khorassan antique rug from Persia, the sand field with an all-over design of palmettes, floral vinery and enlarged serrated leaves within a persimmon palmette and feathery leaf border. Khorasan consists of two words, “Khor” and “Asan,” meaning “rising sun” as befits a region on Iran’s eastern border. Bordering the Salt Desert to the west and Afghanistan and Turkmenistan to the east the Khorassan region (or more correctly, province) is home to many well-known Khorassan rug collection workshops in the towns of Amoghli, Khamenei, Makhmalbaf, Saber, Zarbaf, and, of course, Meshad. With a good supply of soft wool, high quality craftsmen, a mix of larger city-based workshops, looms in smaller villages, and access to the Silk Road, Khorassan has a reputation far and wide as a source of the largest and most varied assortment of beautiful Persian rugs and antique carpets. 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.
