About the Item

Beautiful vintage Persian Kashan area rug, meticulously hand-knotted in the early 1900s. This exquisite piece embodies the classical design principles and utilizes the luminous, resilient wool for which the great workshops of Kashan have been renowned for centuries, resulting in an outcome of consummate refinement. The rug features a captivating classic floral design gracefully unfolding across a rich navy blue field. The intricate motifs are rendered in a harmonious palette of verdant green, classic red, and complementary blues, creating depth and visual interest. A striking navy blue border, adorned with its own delicate floral pattern, perfectly frames the central composition, creating a cohesive and elegant look. What makes this particular Kashan rug exceptionally desirable and truly rare is its status as a "near pair" to our Kashan area rug with SKU 1516. While their border colors differ, the striking similarity in their classical design and sophisticated color scheme makes these two rugs an extraordinary find for those seeking complementary pieces for a grand space, a harmonious design scheme, or a truly unique collection. Its exceptional quality, timeless design, and unique "near pair" status make it a truly cherished heirloom, highly coveted by collectors and designers alike.
