Understated Kashan Carpet 1930s.

4.10 x 3.08 metres.

The city of Kashan, among the best-known and highly-ranked Persian rug-weaving centres, first rose to prominence in the 16th Century, under the Safavid Dynasty. These workshops earned a reputation for producing many of the most highly sought-after rugs of the Classical period and continued their work into the early 20th Century.

This Kashan carpet is a high-end workshop weaving of the 1930s, bearing the signature of one of the master-weavers of its era, responsible for some of the finest and most creative examples of the period, many of which can be found in historic homes across Europe and the UK. An elegant carpet, it features simplified design characteristics of earlier 17th Century weavings, with cornflower blue and muted hazelnut accents, over a soft ivory ground, framed by a wide, muted earth-tone border. Despite dating to the 1930s, this rug has a surprisingly modern aesthetic sensibility.

Retained in very good practical condition for everyday use, with its original borders and fringes preserved on all sides.

A stylish carpet, with an understated elegance that would lend itself equally to a classic or contemporary interior.
