Antique N.W. Persian Persian Medallion Knotted Rug

Antique N.W. Persian Persian Medallion Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century weaving originates from Northwest Persia, showcasing the region's masterful command of color and composition. The expansive field is dominated by a saturated indigo, characteristic of fine blue color rugs, providing a dramatic backdrop for the intricate medallion. The central motif is a highly detailed, curvilinear medallion rendered in rich reds, ochres, and ivory, framed by elegantly drawn flowering vines and palmettes. This piece exemplifies the enduring appeal of classic traditional rugs, featuring complex corner spandrels that mirror the central design's palette, creating visual harmony across the entire composition.
