110 years old-Executed with extraordinary sensitivity, this consummately crafted Kashan Carpet possesses exquisite balance and formal drawing, rendered with dexterous, memorable color contrasts that are at once bold and tremendously nuanced. Its sublime coloration effortlessly juxtaposes evocative tones in unique ways, with light beige, indigo, and unusual, specially time-softened terracotta and periwinkle working in concert to animate the design. 10' 11" x 12' 9" 333cm x 389cm Circa 1910 In addition to the stunning elongated medallion, cornerpieces as well are artistically erratic in their composition. Freefloating, amorphic inner motifs almost tribal in character insert folk art spontaneity into this Court rug's atmosphere of refinement. The patina of great age is magnificent, revealing the profound depth that emerges when these natural craft-brewed dyes have softened for many years. The allover palmette design is remarkably spacious and fitting for a carpet of such expansive dimensions, permitting the viewer to become enveloped in its artistry. Continuing the quiet, gracious warmth of the field, its cobalt-grounded border provides a heightened contrast to the shimmering buttercup, mossy green, taupe and guava highlights expressed in the field.
