DORASHT
Northeast Persian Antique Rug

(Connoisseur-Caliber) Exceptionally engaging, the triumphant mastery of color imbues this supremely accomplished piece. Dorasht, a town near the major city of Meshed, has been an acclaimed weaving center since the Middle Ages, offering innovative superb quality weaving into the early 20th century. In this singular example, the limitless beauty of the natural world is reflected in an enchantingly inventive flowering "Garden of Paradise,” joyously illuminated against a deep indigo field. Populating the sinuous boughs amidst myriad tiny leaves and flowers, an avian menagerie of realistically detailed exotic birds, gift-bearing waterfowl in love and mythical plumed Simurghi stand guard over the fantastical scene. It's easy to imagine yourself being gleefully subsumed into this paradisiacal gardenscape. This painstakingly woven wonder is ideal for the wall or that special place on the floor due to its outstanding condition.
