Mid Century Kashan Rug - 7'7 x 10'10

This vintage Kashan rug showcases the timeless refinement of one of the most celebrated weaving traditions. Woven on a luminous ivory field with an allover lattice of scrolling arabesques, palmettes, and delicate floral sprays, creating a graceful sense of movement and balance. A soft palette of ivory, powder blue, celadon, camel, and warm apricot lends the piece an airy sophistication while emphasizing its crisp drawing and fine craftsmanship. The broad camel-toned main border, richly ornamented with scrolling vines and stylized palmettes, provides a warm counterpoint to the light field, while multiple guard borders frame the composition with elegance. Finely woven with lustrous wool and a supple handle, this rug exemplifies the exceptional quality and enduring appeal of classic Kashan weaving, offering a versatile design equally suited to traditional and contemporary interiors. This rug has remained in the same NYC family in since it was originally purchased new, adding an appealing provenance to its history. It exhibits scattered ols moth damage, primarily along the outer edges and in a few isolated areas of the field, consistent with its age and long-term use. It has been professionally cleaned and carefully prepared for sale, as are all rugs in our collection.
