| From the city of that name in southern Persia, the incredible Kerman carpet is a soft treasure, and among the most beautiful designs woven. The traditional motif has the main border and central medallion in an intricately-detailed, ornate architectural or floral theme in the palest pastels with white-and-gold trim. This typically contrasts with an open field of a rich solid cranberry red, navy blue or other strong colors. Others patterns include the finer Lavar style with garden, tree-of-life, vase and all-over mille fleur designs, or the many pictorials which tell the story of a significant figure or event in history. Silk is almost never used. |

Medium Size Red-Burgundy Bakhtiari Persian Oriental Area Rug 5x10 Handspun Wool
|
Retail price: $1866.35
Your price: $477.51

Bakhtiari people are a noble, ancient tribe surviving in the Chahar Mahal region of south-central Iran. Primitive Bakhtiari rugs frequently have a checkerboard or garden pattern decorated with trees-of-life, birds, flowers and animals, sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract. Generally these are woven with a Turkish knot. But some very beautiful floral patterns are still produced in the principal town of Shahr Kurd with the Persian knot, showing long, exaggerated medallions reminiscent of an earlier Isfahan style. Color schemes include many shades of brown, rust, yellow ochre, bottle green, beige, dark blue and red. |

Medium Size Beige Mughal Garden Persian Oriental Area Rug 4x6 Wool
|
Retail price: $3000.00
Your price: $1500.00
|
Mughal Garden pattern originates from a carpet woven in Northern India in the mid 1600’s. An antique carpet (ca. 1650) in the same design, only woven in pashmena wool on a silk foundation, is on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. During this time period flowers moved from being highlight designs to being the primary design of the carpets. These carpets bloomed with naturalistic floral motifs. Mughal carpets were also an inspiration to the famed William Morris and other arts & crafts innovators. |
