Nazmiyal Collection Antique Geometric Persian Sultanabad Rug

About the Item

Extremely Impressive Antique Geometric Blue Hue Persian Sultanabad Rug, country of origin: Persia, Circa date: 1900 - Sultanabad rugs stand as a significant milestone in the rich tapestry of Persian rug making, marking a pivotal moment of artistic evolution. Born during an era of creative renaissance, these rugs embraced a departure from tradition, opting instead for geometric shapes and a broader color palette. The emergence of geometric patterns in Sultanabad rugs represented a departure from the intricate floral designs prevalent in earlier Persian rug-making traditions. This shift was influenced by several factors. The late 19th and early 20th centuries, the heyday of Sultanabad rugs, witnessed a burgeoning European influence on Persian art. European tastes leaned towards geometric designs and clean lines, a preference that left its mark on Sultanabad rugs. Moreover, the emphasis on geometric forms streamlined the weaving process, resulting in a more commercially viable product. Despite these changes, Sultanabad rugs retained their Persian artistic heritage through the use of premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship. Blue, deeply ingrained in Persian culture, carries profound symbolic meaning. It symbolizes the sky, the heavens, and royalty, evoking a sense of grandeur and tranquility. A rug dominated by blue hues exudes a regal aura, making it a fitting embellishment for esteemed spaces. The geometric motifs themselves may also hold symbolic significance, depending on their specific forms. Squares, for instance, may represent stability and order, while stars could symbolize celestial aspirations. Our antique Sultanabad rug is a testament to the enduring allure of symbolic colors and geometric forms, captivating collectors and enthusiasts worldwide with its timeless beauty and cultural significance.
