170 years old-Very seldom found, 19th century antique carpets in the style of Bijar known as Garrus are widely prized. The Garrus design - a celestial garden motif upon which an arabesque vinery is overlaid - is rendered to perfection in this consummate quality piece. Against a midnight indigo base, the field effectively marries a diversity of robust and delicate elements. The more graphic designs and saturated colors of the field are adroitly reversed in the main border, with its realistically rendered rose flowers and pastel hues. The resulting balance is extremely enchanting. 10' 6" x 17' 3" 320cm x 526cm Circa 1850 Resplendent hues of naturally dyed deeply saturated carnelian, indigo and azure exert a powerful allure in this dazzling Persian Bijar (Bidjar) whose tremendous impact is made even greater by its expansive 10.6x17.3 dimensions. Great attention to balance and symmetry appears in its carefully nested series of reserves, where the much-loved traditional "Garrus" design provides delightfully stylized patterning. Highly resilient wool and superb hand-woven craftsmanship lend great durability to this dynamic, seldom-encountered oversize oriental carpet.
