This rug originates from the area around Kerman, a renowned rug-making city in southeastern Iran, known for its high-quality carpet weaving tradition. Dating back to circa 1930, this specific rug exemplifies the traditional Kerman style with a specific cocoa-colored background and an ivory border. The main color is brown, creating a rich and warm visual experience. Crafted from wool on a cotton foundation, it showcases the fine craftsmanship Kerman carpets are celebrated for.

Kerman has a long history of carpet weaving that began to gain prominence in the early 17th century. The region’s carpets are noted for their fine craftsmanship, intricate designs, and high knot count, which allows for detailed and complex patterns. The artistic peak of Kerman carpets occurred during the Safavid dynasty, particularly with the creation of the famous "vase carpets." The nearby village of Lavar also contributed to the distinct designs associated with Kerman rugs, enriching the overall diversity of styles within this category.

Historically, the weavers of Kerman have demonstrated resilience and adaptability, continuing their craft through periods of civil strife and economic challenges. The region's high-quality wool resources provide durability and a luxurious texture to the carpets, further enhancing their appeal and longevity.

This particular Kerman rug features a symmetric, intricate design with a central medallion surrounded by elaborate floral and foliate patterns. The detailed motifs, rendered in contrasting colors such as soft blues and subtle hints of gray, stand out against the brown and cocoa backdrop. The rug's borders are meticulously crafted, with multiple layers of varying widths, each depicting a unique set of repeating patterns. The widest border encloses larger floral motifs within geometric shapes, while the narrower inner border transitions seamlessly to the central field.

The overall symmetry of the rug’s design underscores the harmony and balance typical of Kerman carpets, with the central medallion and surrounding patterns mirroring each other both horizontally and vertically. The pattern density is notably high, with intricate details filling the rug's entire surface, leaving minimal empty space and creating a richly textured tapestry-like visual effect.

Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.

I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!

Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.

In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!

Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
