178 X 370cm Fine Antique Khorossan Carpet

19th century
Description

A great bargain to cover your floor if you are not bothered by wear. This huge carpet will improve acoustics and provide a certain decorative warmth for very little money. Made in central Persia in the late 19th century it comes with the mystery of the Orient and hundreds of years of rug weaving tradition. Someone has in the past carefully sewn it onto a cotton lining to help preserve it and although looking a little raggedy, I would recommend leaving the lining on as it holds the rug together. Worn, repaired and patched with some splits along the top end...

5'10" x 12'2"

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating from the northeastern province of Khorasan in Persia, these carpets are celebrated for their fine hand-knotted weaving, soft wool pile, and complex botanical, striped, or medallion patterns.

These carpets are constructed using natural wool pile knotted onto a durable cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, coloured with traditional vegetable and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical Senneh knots, high knot density, supple wool texture, subtle abrash colour variations, and detailed border motifs such as the boteh or repeating vine design.

Place the carpet as an anchoring element in a living area or grand hall, pairing its intricate pattern with clean-lined contemporary furniture or neutral upholstery to create visual contrast.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar, rotate the rug annually to ensure even wear, and rely on professional specialist cleaners for stain removal.
