Kashan, situated in the central plateau of Iran, stands as one of the supreme weaving cities in the Persian canon — its workshops producing, since at least the Safavid period, carpets of exceptional knotting density, refined palette, and disciplined classical composition that have commanded the floors of palaces and the walls of museums alike.
This hand-knotted wool example presents the quintessential Kashan medallion format: a deeply saturated midnight-navy field hosts a lobed diamond medallion anchored by elongated palmette finials, from which cascading Shah Abbasi rosettes, lotus blossoms, and spiraling arabesque vines radiate outward in bilateral symmetry, with matching quarter-medallion spandrels drawing the composition into the corners; the crimson main border, generously proportioned, carries a continuous scrolling floral vine populated with full-blown rosettes and serrated leaves, flanked by narrow ivory guard stripes bearing a compact reciprocal flower repeat, the whole framed by a fine outer geometric band — the colour balance between the near-black navy, jewel-toned crimson, warm ivory, amber gold, and accents of sky blue and rose lending the rug the layered luminosity characteristic of high-workshop Kashan production.
At 137×208 cm it functions as a focused room anchor — formal enough for a study or reception salon, yet possessing the warmth of natural wool pile that invites prolonged contemplation.
