On the Design:

This antique Doroksh runner rug enjoys a distinguished marriage between sought-after, exceptionally rich colorway and a celebrated classic pattern. The border orchestrates final symphonic movement through meandering vine progressions where palmettes and rosettes flow in continuous celebration. Camel-toned grounds provide warm embrace while azure and coral accents create rhythmic punctuation throughout the botanical design. The narrative elements make it exceptionally suited for private libraries, studies, or intimate reception areas where the Persian paradise imagery fosters a contemplative atmosphere essential to luxury residential environments. Though its elaborate, dense beauty and wide range of colors are among its chief beauties, the keen eye will admire the intricacies here. The sheer detail and variety is all the more impressive given its size, which is another celebrated trait of Doroksh rugs that makes this piece an exemplar of the lineage—teeming with the many beauties and qualities of its provenance, which remains one of the most sought-after in both Persian city rugs and the full realm of Oriental rugs alike.

This antique Doroksh rug has wear in its field and its borders—sold as is. See less
