Antique N.W. Persian Persian Blue 1814 Rug, Circa Date: 1814. This exceptional piece, originating from N.W. Persian weaving centers, represents a rare survival from the early 19th century. Its construction speaks to the enduring quality and sophisticated dye mastery characteristic of the region's finest village production. The saturated field is dominated by a rich, inky indigo, a hallmark of the finest natural dyes, which provides a dramatic contrast to the terracotta and madder red used in the borders and secondary detailing. The masterful use of this deep shade places it among the most desirable blue color rugs of the period, offering profound visual weight. The complex, repeating boteh and stylized floral elements create a mesmerizing allover design that fills the space without interruption.
