An elegant Persian silk carpet from Qom (Ghoum), crafted during the era of the Shah of Iran, a period particularly renowned for producing the most refined carpets of the 20th century. The workshops of Qom are distinguished by their exceptionally fine knotting, the use of very high-quality silk, and designs of remarkable precision.

This design features a sumptuous central floral medallion on a delicate powder-pink background, surrounded by a profusion of bouquets, arabesques, and finely drawn scrollwork. The rich midnight blue border, adorned with palmettes and floral motifs, enhances the entire composition and underscores the elegance of this piece. The harmonious color palette, blending pink, ivory, blue, celadon, and beige, lends softness and luminosity.

The silk weave offers shimmering highlights that vary depending on the angle of the light, revealing the full richness of the colors and the finesse of the details. Qom rugs are particularly prized for their high knot density, which allows for highly precise designs and a finish reminiscent of a true work of textile art.

With dimensions of 102 × 160 cm, this rug will fit perfectly in a living room, office, bedroom, or as wall decor, where it will add a touch of prestige and refinement.
