Bold geometry, rich symbolism, and vivid coloration enhance the marvelous beauty of this stunning Persian Afshar from 1910s, Iran.

The background comprises the robust base of the carpet, creating a striking contrast against the breathtaking pattern. Rendered primarily in colorful tones, the motifs depict stylized chrysanthemums and a traditional design unique to Afshar carpets.
