On the Design:

Sky blue and cream white borders enclose this rich ruby red open field, which underscores a large-scale diamond-shaped medallion of the same elaborate, finely drawn floral patterns as the borders. The look is both one of meticulous detail and the utmost elegant nature, and keen eyes will particularly note a European influence to the patterns in their more curvaceous nature. Oriental rugs influenced by the European market often make some of the most rare and interesting pieces, and this rug is an exemplar of that principle, not to mention a masterpiece in its execution—teeming with life and regal beauty.

Condition:

This vintage Kerman Lavar rug further enjoys great condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. less
