Beautiful and Finely Woven Antique Persian Farahan Carpet, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa: 1880 – The opulence and grandeur of the great Persian sultans is captured in this spectacular antique Persian Farahan carpet. The vertical and horizontal symmetry of the large open design reflects stylistic notes found in the gardens of the grand Palace estates. The crisp jewel tone rug colors reflect a mastery of design that highlights the use of juxtaposition in this bold, yet elegantly executed antique palatial small rug.

The first thing that stands out about the artistry of this small antique Persian Farahan carpet is its use of concentric medallion designs that divide the field, working from the center outward. The Islimi pattern uses alternating fields of brilliant reds, midnight blues and ivory, highlighted with floral motifs and high contrast colors.

The central rug medallion design provides an organizational theme that echoes throughout the entire Persian rug. The border of the antique rug is understated as compared to the design of the field, highlighting the large scale sweeping design of the central field.
