Fine Oversized Antique Floral Medallion Pattern Light Earthy Color Persian Kerman Rug

$52,000.00

This fine weave oversized antique Persian Kerman rug is a quintessential embodiment of the "Lavar" tradition, representing the most refined and aristocratic tier of weaving from south-central Iran during the late nineteenth century. Historically, the city of Kerman was uniquely positioned as an oasis of artistry, shielded by its geographical isolation from the frequent political upheavals that affected other weaving centers. This allowed for the development of a distinctively fluid, curvilinear style that abandoned the rigid geometric constraints of tribal rugs in favor of a painterly, botanical elegance.
