Persian Oriental rug Iran Kashan - Size: 1.30 x 2.05 metres

Elegant hand-knotted Oriental rug from the famous Kashan workshop, one of the most prestigious centres of Persian weaving. Renowned for centuries for their technical excellence and the richness of their designs, Kashan rugs are among the most sought after by enthusiasts and collectors. Notably, there is a horizontal colour variation commonly known as Abrash, which is frequent on Persian rugs and is a sign of authenticity. This antique rug has some missing wool at the edges - this model features a sumptuous floral decoration finely drawn, organised around a very pretty bouquet, standing out against a salmon field with warm hues. The richly adorned borders with scrolls and stylised flowers frame the whole with great harmony, showcasing a workshop craftsmanship of remarkable precision. Knotted in fine high-quality wool on a cotton foundation, this rug offers both flexibility, density, and excellent durability over time. Its subtle colour palette, combining reds, blues, and ivory touches, reveals the elegance of Persian productions from the first half of the 20th century. Origin: Kashan, Iran.
