Here's an exquisite antique Persian rug and it's simply a mesmerizing piece with an absolute essence of regality and sophistication, transporting one to a bygone era of grandeur and refined taste.
Crafted with superior weight and construction, this heavy-duty antique Persian wool rug boasts an extraordinary ability to endure serious foot traffic, ensuring its beauty for generations to come, but let's talk about what really makes this rug standout, the art and the color story. It's in another ball game and this unique color palette is a bold departure from the typical red ground in most Persian Sarouk rugs. The reason why has something to do with the fact that this is a Mohajeran Sarouk, it's the less seldom woven and higher quality Sarouk rugs that we love to find. They're just different and in a class of their own. This 1920s is a serious charmer.
It showcases a striking and deep navy blue ground adorned with intricate floral sprays, each bursting with vibrant colors. Goodness, the pops of that goldenrod yellow. It's absolute eye candy. The curvilinear design and detailed/crispy work keeps us in awe. If you look in the field, toward the border, there is one large scale floral motif that looks like the tail of a peacock, it's drool worthy art form. The abrash, the subtle differentiation of the vegetable dyed wool that has marbling, is the result of different batches of veg dyed wool the women used to weave; it's gorgeous and you'll see it in the field and the remarkable border of boysenberry plum or you could say a kind of lavender hue. The colors are just so rare on this piece. They're simply delicious and a rug that will be admired on the daily.
This room size Persian sensation will absolutely ground any space with its old world charm and a piece that will forever be loved. The best part of this might be the small business price for this valuable gem. Thank you for choosing Blue Parakeet Rugs.
