An unusual example of from our selection of late 19th century Persian Kerman Persian rugs, the cream field with a dramatic overall design with exotic flowering trees and flowering branches and shrubs within a sand border with dense floral motifs.

During the sixteenth century, Shah Abbas I reportedly gave antique Kirman antique carpets embroidered with gold and silver thread as tribute to the Ottoman Court. The fame of these oriental weavings rapidly spread across Western Europe. From the mid sixteenth century through the eighteenth century, the city of Kirman was celebrated for ‘vase’ oversized area rugs, a term deriving from the depiction of vase motifs in many examples woven there. By the nineteenth century, Kirman was recognized for exceptional oriental round Persian rugs in the best Persian tradition. Antique Persian Kirman carpets of this period, especially the Lavar group woven in the town of Ravar, are known for their fine weave, delicate drawing, incomparable range of color, and are still much in demand today.
