This Persian rug is in the categories of Persian Rug (Persian Carpet), Soltan Abad Persian Rug (Soltan Abad Persian Carpet) and Antique Persian Rug (Antique Persian Carpet), and it has been introduced and provided by Persian Carpet Collection.
This majestic 19th century masterwork in the renowned Sultanabad style is ennobled by its glowing auburn ground and painstakingly sculpted drawing. A captivating kaleidoscopic centerpiece is quintessentially refined by equally stunning secondary medallions. Revealing circular transparent medallions, niched square medallions and, at the corners, echoes of the main medallion this time based in ivory together create unmatched splendor in this completely unique and magnificent carpet.
Achieving an overall sense of perfect design proportions and color placement, an original patterning of golden cypress trees enclose glowing weeping willows on a radiant Aegean blue background rippled with abrash color shifts. Equally visionary, the unique, architectural main border suggests a monumental wall protecting the garden. Amplifying the grandeur of this piece are exquisite tones of Venetian red, golden sand, pine green, honey, celadon and cinnabar, all magically patinaed with time. Superb heavier pile condition proves this piece has always been treated with great respect.
