The antique Persian Lavar Kerman rug originates from the Kerman region in Iran, a historical hub of carpet weaving since the 17th century. Specifically, this rug was created around 1910, reflecting traditional design elements and intricate craftsmanship typical of Lavar Kerman rugs. The weaving tradition continued in Lavar, where weavers emigrated in the early 19th century and merged the styles of Kerman and Lavar, producing carpets renowned for their intricate designs and artistry.

This rug features an ivory background, complemented by a rose-colored border that frames the entire piece. The main color of the rug is ivory, which serves as a neutral base enhancing the visibility of the intricate patterns. It is woven with wool on a cotton foundation, a common material composition for Persian rugs, ensuring durability and a soft texture.

The design is densely patterned with elaborate floral and botanical motifs, executed in a range of colors including shades of red, pink, green, beige, blue, and black. These colors interweave to create detailed, complex patterns throughout the rug, reflecting the sophisticated artistry of Kerman weavers.

At the center of the rug lies a large and intricate medallion, a hallmark of traditional Persian designs. The medallion features a multi-layered composition, beginning with a small central floral motif and expanding into more complex floral and geometric arrangements. The central portion of the medallion is predominantly beige, with surrounding layers in reds, pinks, and greens, making it a striking focal point.

The borders of the rug consist of multiple bands framing the central field. The innermost border is a narrow, dark-colored band, creating a stark contrast to the lighter central area. This is followed by a broader middle border, primarily in light beige, adorned with alternating circular and floral motifs in reds and pinks. The outermost border mirrors the color scheme of the inner band but is wider and contains a more densely packed floral pattern.

The overall design is highly symmetrical, with patterns on the left and right sides mirroring each other perfectly. This symmetry contributes to the visual harmony and balance of the rug, characteristic of finely crafted traditional Persian rugs.

This Lavar Kerman rug exemplifies the traditional Persian weaving techniques, with a high knot count that results in both durability and a supple texture, allowing for the detailed and complex patterns that are visually captivating. The rug not only serves as a functional floor covering but also as a representation of the rich cultural heritage and artistic achievements of Persian weavers from the early 20th century.

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.
