This hand-knotted Persian rug from the Kashan province in Iran is crafted from high-quality, subtly lustrous wool. Measuring 390x290 cm including fringes, the composition features a classic central medallion design surrounded by symmetrical arabesques and floral motifs. The dominant hue is a rich, warm red, serving as a backdrop for accents of navy blue, ivory, light blue, olive green, gold, and beige, resulting in a harmonious multicolor contrast. A wide border repeats ornamental patterns, finished with traditional hand-knotted fringes. The surface is characterized by a dense, fine weave with a smooth, soft texture. The rug is in excellent condition, presenting as new with an intentionally aged, vintage-inspired finish.This piece echoes the voice of Persian craftsmanship from the late 19th to early 21st century, telling a story of tradition where each knot was a gesture of respect for pattern and material. The deep red and intricate details evoke corridors of historic palaces and homes, where color symbolized hospitality and ornamentation was believed to protect inhabitants. The subtle sheen of the wool pile and the rhythm of repeating motifs seem to whisper of slow-moving time, inviting appreciation for artistry and permanence.A textile of this caliber would suit a spacious living room, where it could be paired with low dark wood furniture, simple sofas in light tones, or a minimalist floor lamp. It would also work well alongside contemporary artworks or classic period decorations—worth combining with ceramics of tranquil form or olive-green glass. This rug provides a distinctive foundation for both collector’s eclectic interiors and spaces inspired by mid-century modern style.
