Antique Persian Khorasan rug with a remarkably beautiful all over botanical design in the “Shah Abbas” style. Large lavish palmettes vie for the eye’s attention while sensuous vines and flowers provide a lush backdrop against vivid navy blue. You will not find a more sophisticated cast of colors, including celadon green, rose, crimson, aquamarine, khaki, burgundy, fawn, and cream. All colors are derived from plant and mineral sources. The finely spun wool and skillful hand knotting give this rug a luxuriously soft and velvety handle. It is a rare example suitable for the most discerning connoisseur.
