An item of classical and timeless beauty in the most traditional and famous medallion composition of Kashan, the historic knotting centre of Persia which has been the origin of many of the greatest and most valuable Persian carpets known, dating back to the 15th Century and the Imperial Court looms of the Safavid dynasty. The serene splendour of the definitive Kashan medallion design with Mir boteh designs employed in this work exerts a magical allure which has ensured its survival in virtually unchanging form over the centuries. This medallion arrangement is here detailed against a radiant field setting of endlessly-varied floral devices, each flawlessly rendered with the utmost elegance of expression. The superb blue, red and madder dye shades which are a hallmark of the true Kashan are brilliantly combined to create the jewel-like impression which is at the heart of this item's unforgettable visual presence. A Kashan master carpet of exceptional merit in its every aspect.
