Buyer's Premium:

A hand-knotted Oriental rug, likely of Persian origin, featuring a style consistent with regional weaving centres such as Malayer or Sarouk. The rug is constructed with a wool pile on a cotton foundation. The ivory-coloured field is decorated with an all-over repeating trellis pattern of stylized flowering shrubs and tree motifs in indigo blue, terracotta, and pink tones. The central field is enclosed by a wide indigo-blue primary border containing floral rosettes and scrolling vine work, flanked by narrower terracotta-coloured guard borders with repeating floral motifs.

9ft x 6ft.
