Dating to around 1880, this Fereghan rug has real ''old school'' charm. It is finely knotted in hand-spun wool, and the dyes are all derived from natural sources which has resulted in a subtle range of colours. The ''Herati design in the field has been drawn crisply and with good spacing. Note the delightful little spandrels in the corners of the field decorated with flowers and little animals which breaks up the precision of the Herati pattern, but also reminds us that the weaver has a personality.. The lovely terracotta ''turtle'' border is typical of Fereghans of this type with repeating palmettes and meandering vines. This is a classic rug with a classic design that would fulfill anyone''s expectations of a Persian rug. Clipped low, and in very good condition. There are a couple of very small old repairs, otherwise the pile is in excellent condition. Original selvages intact.FREE WORLDWIDE DELIVERY.All items can be viewed in my gallery .
