Antique Sultanabad Persian Floral Medallion Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This magnificent example of the Sultanabad style captures the essence of late 19th-century luxury. Produced in the Arak region, these carpets were specifically designed for the discerning tastes of Western markets, favoring softer palettes and grander scales than traditional city weaves. The open, cream-toned field provides a sophisticated contrast to the stylized central medallion and the saturated madder red and deep indigo accents found within the borders. The overall aesthetic is characterized by elaborate floral designs interspersed with palmettes and vine scrolls, reflecting the enduring legacy of the Persian weaving tradition through a distinctly Westernized lens.
