Antique Persian Laver Kerman Carpet, Amazing Oversize

Offered by: Eli Peer Oriental Rugs

Description
Amazing oversize and very fine antique Persian Kerman carpet in excellent condition, circa 1920 with all-over large floral design.
Kirman was a very important antique rug weaving centre dating from the Golden Age of Persian culture under the Safavid dynasty in the 16th century, on a par with Tabriz and Kashan in esteem. The color palette of Laver Kirman antique Persian rugs is unusually soft and delicate with a European grace. The weavers had access to the prized and extremely expensive cochineal dye which yielded the rich Renaissance blue-reds found in antique Kirman carpets, rather than the rust red found in other antique Persian rugs. The use of soft gold and yellows juxtaposed against small areas of deep, almost black indigo dyes as well as a range of soft pinks, greens, and blues give Laver Kirman antique oriental rugs their unique and popular color palette.
