About the Item

This spectacular 13x23 antique Persian rug represents a distinguished addition to Rug & Kilim's classics—a superb example of the legendary Kerman Lavar weaving tradition that showcases the pinnacle of Persian carpet designs. On the Design: This antique Lavar Kerman represents the pinnacle of Persian floral carpet weaving, characterized by its refined palette and masterful articulation of design. The design is rooted in classical Safavid garden traditions, expressed here through a continuous vinery interspersed with stylized palmettes, rosettes, and curled saz leaves. The floral motifs are harmoniously distributed with no central medallion, relying instead on balance and symmetry to guide the eye, a hallmark of sophisticated drawing. The color palette leans toward muted camel, oxidized sienna, and subdued indigo accents—tones mellowed over time to a painterly elegance through natural vegetable dyes. What distinguishes this classic Kerman Lavar is its deeply etched border: three nested frames, each populated with diminutive floral tendrils, act as both visual anchor and complement to the dense interior. The inner and outer guards subtly echo the palette of the field, enhancing the overall sensibility. This interplay of tonal restraint and high-detail drawing is what renders Lavar Kermans especially desirable to connoisseurs and collectors alike. Condition: This oversized antique Persian Kerman Lavar rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
