This 9’8” x 19’ antique hand-knotted Persian Kerman rug is a stunning example of traditional craftsmanship, showcasing the artistry and precision of Persian weaving. The rug’s expansive ivory field is adorned with a central medallion that radiates outward in a series of delicate floral motifs, typical of the Kerman style. Its hand-knotted wool construction not only lends the piece its luxurious texture but also ensures exceptional durability, allowing it to endure as a functional work of art for generations.
Surrounding the central field is an intricate series of borders, the widest of which features a soft blue tone with detailed floral and vine scrollwork in shades of red, rose, and cream. These complex patterns, designed to frame the central medallion, draw the eye inward and create a sense of harmony across the nearly 20-foot expanse. Each knot reflects the meticulous attention to detail characteristic of antique Kerman rugs, where traditional techniques have been passed down through centuries.
Ideal for a grand living space, gallery, or formal setting, this rug’s large size and refined design make a powerful statement. The natural wool fibers give it a slight sheen and rich depth of color, while the hand-knotted construction speaks to its authenticity and heritage. As both a decorative focal point and a historical textile, this Kerman rug embodies the elegance and timeless appeal of Persian artistry.
