About the Item

79166 Vintage Persian Hunting Scene Isfahan Rug, 03'07 x 05'02. In the impeccable weave of this hand-knotted, vintage Persian Isfahan rug, the epic grandeur of signature Safavid storytelling comes to life—a masterpiece of exceptional artistry and timelessness. Woven with exquisite precision, this one-of-a-kind treasure evokes the majestic pageantry of royal hunts, once held in the verdant courts of Persia’s golden age. On an ivory-hued field of refined luster, an imperial chase gallops forth: noble horsemen, clad in courtly finery, thunder across the scene with bows drawn, lances extended, and wild beasts caught in dynamic flight. It is a vision of extraordinary power, elegance, and ritual—an homage to the heritage of a bygone era. Each rider, creature, and blossom is rendered with painterly grace and meticulous detail, a testament to the artisanal brilliance of Isfahan’s fabled looms. The magnificent composition transcends decoration—it is a curated universe, a living theater where valor and beauty move in harmonious rhythm. Lions prowl beneath cypress trees, gazelles leap between flowering thickets, peacocks strut with noble poise, and leopards crouch mid-sprint. Even ducks glide serenely through glistening waters, undisturbed by the chase above. This extraordinary tableau unites nature and humanity in a celebration of life’s complexity—woven poetry drawn from the threads of legend. Encircling this visual epic is a tailor-made border, not merely a frame, but a whimsical extension of the story—an enchanted garland of stylized, ancient motifs. Watchful deer, leaping antelope, and blooming flora form a rhythmic, protective veil, their forms echoing the eternal dance between man, beast, and the divine order. In each corner, pastoral vignettes offer moments of serene reflection, a visual pause from the vibrant momentum within—an elegant contrast that deepens the soul of the design. Born in the illustrious city of Isfahan—long celebrated as a cradle of preeminent textile artistry—this rug is far more than ornament. It is a precious manuscript woven in wool: a bespoke legacy of courtly splendor, poetic tradition, and unparalleled craftsmanship. With every thread, it carries the voices of poets, the courage of kings, and the hands of master weavers. It is an heirloom of exceptional poise, an elite expression of cultural depth and visual storytelling. To walk upon it is to enter a world of enchantment, where the hunt becomes a hymn, the border a sonnet, and the whole—a luxurious, timeless tribute to Persian genius. This is not simply a rug. It is a radiant, personalized window into the eternal spirit of nobility, artistry, and the enduring allure of the hunt. Abrash. Hand knotted cotton. Made in Iran. Measures: 03'07 x 05'02. Pile Height: 0.20 of an inch. Date: 1970's. Late 20th Century.
