Large Antique Persian Kirman Carpet BB6732 14'0" × 21'4" $160,000

An exceptional late 19th century Persian Kerman rugs for sale, the beige field with an unusual trellis overall of midnight blue split-leaf tendrils linked horizontally forming row and floral vinery within a midnight blue palmette and leaf border.

Colors can range from ivory, blue and magenta to a more golden and saffron cast. As unique as their designer, no two Kerman large round area rugs are precisely alike. Because of the tremendous demand for Persian carpets, and because of the complex demographics of those generating the demand, a surprising variety of styles and designs were produced. While some Kirman antique oriental rugs were woven explicitly for moneyed buyers from the West, there were also local consumers which only added to the diversity of the Kirman rugs. This diversity is seen in the range of motifs which can range from well-known and original Persian motifs to western motifs; striped and repetitive motifs, vase, Toranj (Citron), symmetric, garden, animal shapes, and pictorial rugs.
