Persian Oriental rug Iran Lilian: 1.47 x 1.97 metres

This superb Persian Lilian rug is an authentic piece made entirely by hand according to ancestral craftsmanship. Dating from around 1930, it is renowned for its robustness and decorative richness. The central field is dominated by a large diamond-shaped medallion richly adorned with stylised floral patterns, harmoniously arranged around a lighter central medallion. The whole rests on a deep blue background, beautifully contrasted by shades of brick red, ivory, beige, and touches of brown, creating a composition that is both dynamic and balanced. The wide and finely decorated borders, composed of continuous floral motifs and plant scrolls, elegantly frame the central decor and reinforce the visual structure of the rug. The wool, of fine quality, offers a dense and supple touch, ensuring both comfort and durability. Over time, the colours have acquired a highly sought-after natural patina, giving the rug depth and authentic charm without altering the readability of the patterns. The overall condition is very satisfactory for an antique rug, with no major defects, making it an ideal piece for both classic and contemporary interiors. This Lilian rug is a true work of art, perfect for enhancing a living room, office, or bedroom, while bringing character, warmth, and elegance to your space.
