Antique Persian Kirman Handmade Wool Rug BB5577 12'4" × 23'1" $90,000
$90,000
An unusual early 20th century Southeast Persian Kirman (Kerman) antique carpet, the pale peach field with elaborate stepped medallions defined by delicate scrolling vinery, each containing floral sprays.
Colors can range from ivory, blue, and magenta to a more golden and saffron cast. As unique as their designer, no two Kerman rugs are precisely alike. Because of the tremendous demand for Kirman rugs and because of the complex demographics of those generating the demand, a surprising variety of styles and designs were produced. While some Kirman rugs were woven explicitly for moneyed buyers from the West, there were also local consumers which only added to the diversity of the Kirman Antique Persian 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.
