KASHAN
Central Persian

(Decorative) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Featuring superb workmanship including an exceptional clarity of its graceful curvilinear design, extremely fine knotting, and excellent wool quality, combine to make this Kashan Persian city carpet a superb demonstration of classical artistry and quality still available in some rugs from the second quarter, 20th century. Absolute symmetry controls a mind-boggling array of botanical sprays that encircle the lavish central medallion, all framed by a charming layered Rococo-esque border suite of intertwined palmettes and blossoms. A surprising diversity of tones are sprinkled throughout the crimson reserve, including arctic blue, juniper green, dusky rose, and luxurious golden saffron, each an integral part of its symphony of color.
