Ravar Kerman / 15268

This Ravar Kerman antique rug in wool measures 267 x 366 cm and carries a richly worked field of floral sprays, scrolling vines, palmettes, and a centred medallion. Ivory ground tones are set against blue, rose red, green, tan, and burgundy, creating a composed, layered palette with softened contrast. The border arrangement is detailed yet restrained, giving the piece a sense of order around the more expressive interior drawing. Circa 1915 - 1940, this antique rug shows low distress and the mellow surface character expected of an older wool weave, with its design still reading clearly from edge to edge.
