No. 30489
Persia, Early 20th Century
10 ft. 5 in. x 13 ft. 4 in.
(3.15 x 4.03 m)
A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation, this large village carpet departs from the traditional antique Bibikabad camel tones, opting instead for a red field adorned with five columns of vertical petal palmettes, barbed leaves, open diamonds, and octagonal rosettes. The teal border showcases long, serrated leaf diagonals alternating with bracketed palmettes. Despite these distinctive elements, the unique knot surface remains consistent.
