A mid-20th-century Persian Isfahan carpet signed by Abtin, measuring approximately 4'10" × 7'10" (147 × 238 cm). Isfahan (Esfahan) is a historic city in central Persia (now Iran), one of the most important centers of fine formal Persian carpet weaving. Master-signed Isfahan carpets — bearing the woven signature of a recognized weaver such as Abtin — represent the highest tier of Isfahan production and are particularly sought after among collectors of fine Persian carpet. Hand-knotted, fine knot count. Authentic one-of-a-kind master-signed example. Abtin is the head of the weaving atelier and did not actually work on this particular carpet.
