Isfahan Iran Rug 220 X 145 Cm
Iranian kurk* wool rug, cotton warp and weft, circa 1900. Used condition on the entire rug. Restored breakpoints and borders. Very solid carpet despite its age.
Isfahan rugs are among the finest and finest rugs in Iran. The first productions began during the Safavid dynasty (1501-1732) and more precisely under the reign of Shah Abbas the Great (1588-1629). Interrupted in the 18th century by an Afghan invasion, production only reappeared at the end of the 19th century. But it was especially at the beginning of the 20th century that the achievements gained momentum thanks to the initiative of traders from Kashan and Tabriz. By tradition, these achievements were family, homestay.
Beautiful achievement for this Isfahan in dozar format made with great mastery and in kurk wool. A multitude of flowers and foliage surround an atypical medallion, on a navy blue background. The main border, carmine red, enhances the whole carpet. It should be noted that the Ustad (master weaver) has produced a remarkable 'cardboard'**.
*Kurk wool: fine lamb's wool taken by combing. Strong and durable wool.
**Carton: Mat diagram. This is a design made up of small colored squares, each corresponding to a node. The Ustad is the master who makes the boxes.
