Fine Kachan Dabir Silk And Wool Carpet, Signed "commande Bannayan" – Royal Workshop

Kachan Dabir rug (Iran), made in the workshop of the famous Master Weaver Dabir, renowned for his work with the royal court, as was Master Mortachemi. A rare work, specially commissioned by Bannayan, dating from the first half of the 20th century. Woven from approximately 70 to 80% silk with lambswool (Kork) inlays on a silk and cotton foundation, this rug has a remarkable density of approximately 9,000 to 10,000 knots/dm². The golden yellow silk field is decorated with fine symmetrical floral scrolls, framing a central diamond-shaped medallion, trimmed with a multicolored lambswool spray. The ivory silk border is delicately decorated with polychrome flower sprays, enhanced with a navy blue medallion bearing the inscription "Commission Bannayan". The whole offers a perfect harmony between the refinement of the graphics, the freshness of the colors and the technical complexity of the weaving. An exceptional piece, perfectly preserved, witness to the refined know-how of the great workshops of Kachan. Dimensions: 210 x 136 cm
