This Persian Kashan rug, dating to circa 1930, showcases a traditional design characteristic of the Kashan region. Originating from one of Persia's most venerable weaving centers, this rug features a refined blend of materials, constructed with wool on a cotton foundation.
The background of the rug is ivory, presenting a neutral and elegant canvas that highlights the skillful craftsmanship inherent in Kashan designs. The central medallion, a prominent feature of this piece, stands out with a dark reddish-brown base intricately adorned with floral motifs in shades of blue and white. This detailed medallion is symmetrical, serving as the focal point and exemplifying the sophistication typical of Kashan rugs.
The field of the rug is richly decorated with a dense array of floral and vine patterns, utilizing a cohesive palette of cream, dark blue, and red. These elements create a rhythmic, repeating pattern of ornate flowers and leaves, all meticulously interconnected to form a visually cohesive design. The elaborate floral imagery extends to the corner brackets, which reflect portions of the central medallion’s intricate pattern, enhancing the overall symmetry and balance of the rug.
The border structure further complements the complexity of the design. The primary border is rendered in a rose hue, detailed with intricate floral motifs that echo the central design elements. This main border provides a striking contrast, drawing the eye and framing the central field. Flanking this are narrower secondary borders, which add layers to the overall pattern. The inner secondary border features a prominent red band, distinguished by its own intricate floral designs, continuing the theme of detailed craftsmanship throughout the rug’s expanse.
Constructed with wool on a cotton foundation, this rug not only exudes aesthetic appeal but also ensures durability and resilience. The use of high-quality materials is evident in the rug’s texture and construction, indicative of the traditional weaving techniques practiced in Kashan for centuries. This rug’s intricate patterns and muted color scheme make it a versatile piece, suitable for various decorative settings.
This antique Persian Kashan rug, with its ivory background and rose border, offers a glimpse into the rich weaving traditions and artistic heritage of Kashan, preserved through generations of skilled craftsmanship.
