On the Design:

A steel-blue field features systematically arranged boteh motifs, rendered with exceptional curvilinear precision. Admirers of craft shall appreciate the layering of primary Shah Abbas palmettes with secondary islimi vine structures that create rhythmic diagonal movement across the field. The border employs a classic reciprocal rosette and palmette arrangement on an ivory field, providing necessary contrast while maintaining tonal harmony with the central field. The colorway demonstrates exemplary restraint—employing madder reds, indigo blues, and muted salmon accents to articulate the floral elements. Keen eyes for detail will love this subversive way to approach a traditional design, while anyone can appreciate its unique classic look, detail, movement and phenomenal range of colors in kind.

Condition:

This vintage Kayseri rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, with only subtle wear consistent with age. See less
