Antique Large Coral NW Persian Geometric Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1750s. This exceptional piece represents the enduring legacy of early Persian weaving, characterized by a dense, all-over field design that speaks to tribal or village craftsmanship rather than court production. Its profound age and remarkable preservation place it among the finest examples of antique rugs available today, offering a rare glimpse into the textile artistry of the mid-18th century. The field is saturated with a complex geometric lattice, featuring stylized medallions and repeating boteh forms rendered in a rich palette of Coral and deep indigo. The subtle variation in dye lot and fiber quality contributes to the magnificent abrash visible throughout the central panel, a hallmark of genuine 18th-century nomadic or village work.
