Extra Large Persian Kirman Botanic Handmade Wool Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
This turn of the century antique Persian Kirman rug features an all-over design of repeating herati pattern in shades of blue and green against a light yellow field. The herati pattern, also known as the "fish pattern," consists of a diamond shape containing a flower and diagonally framed by leaves, and is a staple of Oriental rug weaving. Floral motifs also abound in the antique carpet. Antique Kirman carpets are sought-after collectors' items for a number of reasons, including their broad range of designs, an elaborate palette, use of natural dyes and fibers, great tensile strength and expert color combinations. The extra large area rugs for living room are typically cotton-foundation with high knot densities, and frequently have intricate all-over floral patterns - as seen in this particular rug. Golam Hussein, Sherefat Khan and Arjomand are among the most well-known 20th century Kirman designers.
