Lilliehan

An exceptionally rare oversized Lilihan rug with remarkable elegance and refined Persian character. The light beige field gives this large scale carpet a calm and almost floating appearance, while the large medallion like motifs in soft rose, dark blue, beige and ivory create a fascinating balance between restraint and decorative presence. Particularly striking is the spacious open field design which gives the rug an extraordinary sense of calm and architectural clarity. The beautifully arranged medallions appear almost suspended within the composition, creating an elegant and surprisingly modern effect despite the rug’s classical Persian origin. The finely detailed floral border frames the field harmoniously and further enhances the overall elegance of the piece. Lilihan rugs are among the most distinctive weavings of central Persia and were traditionally produced by Armenian weavers in the region south of Arak. They are especially admired for their refined floral patterns, durable structure and sophisticated colour palettes featuring lighter grounds with subtle rose and beige tones. This rare one of a kind example stands out through its harmonious colours and highly decorative presence. Some signs of wear are visible within the pile, yet the rug remains in beautiful and authentic condition and has been professionally cleaned. This gentle patina adds additional character and highlights the originality and history of the piece. Measuring an impressive 435 x 338 cm, this rug is ideally suited for grand living spaces, elegant salons, libraries or sophisticated business interiors. A rare Persian Lilihan rug with timeless elegance, calm colour harmony and exceptional collector appeal.
