Antique khamse Room Size Wool Blue Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1930s. This compelling textile is a superb example of khamse rugs, renowned for their dense, tribal iconography and powerful geometric structure. Woven in the tradition of the Iranian / Persian rugs, this piece showcases the nomadic artistry of the Fars region with exceptional clarity and detail. The deep, saturated indigo field provides a dramatic backdrop for the complex array of stylized motifs that populate the ground. While the overall impression is rich and earthy, the foundation is rooted in the sophisticated use of the blue color rugs, which provides necessary depth and contrast to the vibrant reds, terracottas, and ochres found within the medallions and borders.
