This oversize antique rug comes from the high altitude plains of South Central Persia. It's an elegant and classical antique Kerman Lavar that offers imaginative design and sensational art before our very eyes. With floral and curvilinear hand knotted art, a large and lovely flanked central medallion, aged wool and remarkable natural dyes, this beauty offers much grace and grandeur.
This beauty is finely knotted and was woven in the late 19th Century. Skillful hands and multiple weavers took to the loom for years to produce this palatial rug.
Marco Polo made these amazing rugs all the more popular as he favored them and Europeans have forever adored them and furnished their homes with these floral Persians. Just, check out the close ups to dream a little dream. Look at those exquisite colors of teal, French blue, dusty ruby and more on the sand ground of this magnificent piece. We sure do have a ton of pics to show it off.
