About the Item

Made with handwoven silk, this 3x3 Antique Persian square horse cover rug originated in Iran circa 1880-1890, created during the Qajar dynasty's artistic renaissance, and is an exquisite addition to the Rug & Kilim’s classic textiles collection. On the Design: This extraordinary horse cover textile showcases the pinnacle of Persian embroidery art through its meticulously executed medallion-and-corner design. The central roundel features an exquisite floral rosette rendered with remarkable precision, surrounded by an elaborate field of delicate vine scrolls and blossoms that demonstrates the exceptional quality of Qajar-period needlework. Keen eyes for detail will appreciate the sophisticated cartouche framework that organizes the design—ivory quatrefoil medallions connected by elegant curvilinear bands create a formal structure that frames the central medallion while establishing perfect balance across the surface. The colorway exhibits the refined palette associated with royal Persian textiles—deep carnelian red, midnight black, and ivory predominate, with strategic accents of cerulean blue, sage green, and golden yellow. Though originally created for ceremonial equestrian display, this textile's extraordinary preservation and artistic significance have rightfully elevated it to wall-hanging status, where its remarkable needlework can be fully appreciated as a singular artistic achievement. Its exceptional condition and pictorial complexity make it not only a significant historical document but a gorgeous, intricate work of Persian decorative arts that would command attention in the most distinguished collections. Condition: This antique Persian horse cover is in good condition for its age and origin, and is made solely for wall-hanging purposes.
