About the Item

73023 Late 19th Century Antique Persian Farahan Rug, 10'09 x 17'05. A masterpiece of Persian artistry, this hand knotted wool Late 19th Century antique Persian Farahan rug captivates with its intricate design and mesmerizing interplay of colors. Woven with masterful precision, its composition is anchored by a central diamond medallion, adorned with delicate Herati motifs, which echo throughout the expansive midnight blue field and ivory corner spandrels. These stylized, interlocking floral and geometric elements create a dynamic visual rhythm, evoking the endless beauty of Persian garden symbolism. The contrast between the deep indigo field and the luminous ivory spandrels enhances the rug’s striking presence, making it a timeless testament to the elegance of Farahan weaving. Adding to its depth and structure, an inner crenelated fence framework weaves through the composition, shifting in hues of green, blue, and red, imbuing the Farahan rug with a subtle yet enchanting energy. This crenelated motif, historically symbolic of protection and fortification, encases the heart of the design, lending a sense of strength and permanence to the Persian rug’s intricate beauty. The rhythmic repetition of the Herati pattern within this architectural framework creates a mesmerizing effect, further enhancing the rug’s complexity and refined symmetry. Enclosing this splendid field is a richly ornamented turtle vine scroll border, a motif that has been cherished in Persian rug weaving for centuries. This flowing border, adorned with stylized turtle-shell palmettes and scrolling vines, weaves a continuous story of movement and organic fluidity. It is flanked by double inner and outer meander guard bands, their rhythmic floral formations providing an elegant transition between the central design and the richly colored outer framework, reinforcing the Persian rug’s balance and harmonious proportions. This antique Persian Farahan rug is not merely a textile but a piece of history—one that bridges past and present with its timeless aesthetic and exquisite craftsmanship. Whether placed in a stately interior, an old-world library, or a modern setting seeking depth and character, this woven wonder carries with it a narrative of artistry, cultural heritage, and refined sophistication. It stands as a testament to the enduring beauty of Persian weaving traditions, a piece that enchants and inspires with every glance. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool.
