A mid-19th-century antique Persian formal carpet from the 1850s, The piece measures approximately 13’6″ × 16’10” (per the seller listing).
The composition is a navy-field design with both floral and figural elements — an unusual combination for a Persian formal carpet of this period, and one that sets the piece apart from the more strictly floral and medallion-driven vocabularies of the same era. The carpet is attributed to the formal weaving regions of northeastern Persia (now Iran).
