This antique circa 1920 Khorassan rug is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian carpet distinguished by an elegant pale blue and ivory palette. Its finely drawn floral medallion, scrolling arabesques, and layered botanical borders create a refined, airy expression with exceptional decorative versatility. An ideal centerpiece for a living room, dining area, or bedroom.
Faded cool tones of pale blue, ivory, taupe, blue gray, soft gray, beige, and charcoal, with a pale blue field.
Khorasan (also Khorassan) is a vast region of northeastern Iran encompassing a number of important weaving centers, most notably Meshed (now Mashhad), the region's capital. Khorasan rugs share certain characteristics — double-wefted cotton foundations, asymmetric knotting, and elaborate curvilinear floral designs — while varying considerably in quality and palette from workshop to workshop.
The finest antique Khorasan carpets rival the great city workshops of central Persia in their technical achievement. Their palette tends toward rich reds, deep blues, and ivory, with medallion and all-over floral formats predominating. They are substantial, formal rugs suited to large rooms and traditional interiors.
