Antique Kerman, Persia, circa 1900This stylishly opulent antique Kerman has classical Persian design. At the center a multi-petaled oval medallion floats amidst a jungle of lush leafy foliage, surrounded in turn by arabesque vinescroll cornerpieces. An equally lush vinescroll border repeats the detail of the field, but arranged into sequential cartouches. Despite the rich complexity of the design, cool tone-on-tone coloration imparts a calm, reserved impression to the overall composition, greatly enhancing the decorative potential of the carpet.
