Kashan / 10801

A substantial Kashan in wool, the rug presents an all-over field of palmettes and floral sprays on a deep red ground. A navy cartouche border frames rosette motifs, with brown and neutral highlights that calm the palette. Wear is low, the surface showing gentle abrash and modest pile compression that add a tactile, time-softened character. The design language is disciplined and heritage-aware, the composition retaining clear pattern definition across its long span. Circa 1900 - 1930. Size: 366 x 693 cm. This antique rug retains a considered, tactile character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
