Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1910-1920, this 12x15 antique Persian rug is a rich and rare collectible of Kerman Lavar provenance—an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s Collection.
On the Design:
This antique Kerman Lavar rug displays a masterful arrangement of paisley and cypress tree floral motifs (or “boteh”)—each one rendered with remarkable precision against a rich red field that has aged to create perfect patina. Admirers of the craft will appreciate the extraordinary detail within each medallion, where delicate floral elements emerge with jewel-like clarity. Though its elaborate, dense beauty and wide range of colors are among its chief beauties, there are especially present real, light gold, and cream tones the keen eye will admire in the intricacies here. The sheer detail and variety is all the more impressive given its large size, which is another celebrated trait of Kerman Lavar rugs that makes this piece an exemplar of the lineage—teeming with the many beauties and qualities of its provenance, which remains one of the most sought-after in both Persian city rugs and the full realm of Oriental rugs alike.
Condition:
This antique Kerman Lavar rug further enjoys an overall good condition for its age and origin—an impressive find among Persian rugs of a celebrated weaving tradition. The rug enjoys a comprehensive restoration by our in-house team.
