This hand-knotted wool signed antique Persian Kashan rug is a stunning testament to the artistry and refinement of Persian weaving traditions. With its opulent color palette and intricate botanical motifs, this masterpiece exudes elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of Kashan’s celebrated rug-making heritage. At the heart of the composition lies a beautifully structured medallion, anchored with trefoil pendants, resting upon a golden tan field. This luminous backdrop serves as a canvas for an enchanting array of blooming palmettes, scrolling vines, and delicate floral sprays, each motif woven with masterful precision, creating a mesmerizing dance of nature-inspired patterns.

The graceful corner spandrels echo the detailing of the medallion, seamlessly blending into the field and enhancing the Kashan rug’s sense of harmony. These ornate spandrels, filled with delicate floral tracery and arabesque motifs, showcase the intricacy and depth of Persian design. The meticulous arrangement of botanical elements throughout the composition evokes a sense of movement and vitality, reminiscent of Persian garden carpets that symbolize paradise on earth.

Encasing this magnificent work is a richly adorned Shah Abbas palmette border, a hallmark of classical Persian rugs. This elaborate framing is further enriched by inner and outer rosette meander guard bands, lending a structured yet flowing elegance to the overall design. The deep crimson and sapphire blue hues of the border create a striking contrast against the warm golden tones of the field, amplifying the Kashan rug’s regal presence and visual allure.

What sets this Early 20th Century Kashan rug apart is the woven signature inscription in the border, a mark of authenticity and prestige. This signature signifies the work of a distinguished master weaver or workshop, elevating the rug’s value as a true collector’s piece. More than just a decorative treasure, this woven wonder is an heirloom of enduring beauty, history, and craftsmanship—an artistic marvel that will grace any space with timeless refinement and cultural depth.
