Antique Kashan, Persia, circa 1910 - Fnely rendered vines and palmettes arranged as repeating S-scrolls swirl sinuously across the field of this exquisite antique Kashan. The various forms are rendered in ivory and pastel shades all set against a rich red ground. The main arabesque border is smaller in scale but more plushly proportioned, while its dark, blue-black ground ground presents the perfect framing contrast to the field. The drawing of this carpet is exceptionally elegant, even among fine antique Kashans of this kind.
