Hand-knotted in the third quarter of the 20th century in the historic city of Isfahan, the rug exemplifies the precision, elegance, and artistic sophistication for which Isfahan carpets are internationally celebrated.

The composition centers on a luminous ivory field, creating an atmosphere of light and architectural clarity. Anchoring the design is a richly detailed navy medallion, radiating outward into an intricate network of floral motifs rendered in harmonious shades of red, blue, green, yellow, and soft pink. The finely drawn botanical elements demonstrate the curvilinear mastery that defines Isfahan craftsmanship.

Framing the field is a deep navy border featuring the classical Shah Abbas “Leaf and Sickle” motif—an iconic Safavid-era design characterized by scrolling vines, palmettes, and stylized foliage. This elegant border not only provides structure but also reinforces the rug’s historical lineage within Persian decorative arts.  Hand-knotted in fine wool (often with silk highlights in Isfahan weavings), this rug offers a supple texture and crisp pattern clarity.
