Decorative South Persian Tribal Carpet, Circa 1900, 2.97m X 2.15m

1900 - 1920

Sold by Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs

Description

Woven by the settled Khamseh weavers in South Persia around the city of Shiraz, this is a fine example. Made with handspun wool and good dyes, this carpet has a dark rich impression, while the design is bold and archaic. I have rarely seen a central medallion with this format flanked by four complementary cartouche-like motifs in each corner of the field. Lots of charming filler ornaments. This carpet certainly makes a statement - in a useful size and would make a great furnishing carpet. It has survived the generations well, with minimal signs of wear or damage. Ends and side cords are original and intact. Professionally cleaned in our workshop.
