(Connoisseur-Caliber) ("New Arrivals Gallery") This is a quintissential representative of the highly distinguished 19th-century Ferahan style, with an aesthetic that is accentuated by a gentle patina of age, tight weave and the wonderful sheen of its extremely fine wool. The incredibly detailed allover design is traditional Herati and is set upon an implied lattice over an inky indigo base. Repeating bunches of minuscule blossoms, sprig and flower motifs, mandalas and subtle vinery in clear tones of azure, rust red, ivory and coral fill the field. A warm, luminescent main border in glowing rust red bears a finely etched, highly chiseled Shah Abbas design, named for the illustrious Safavid ruler, that reflects the artistic dexterity found in the best Ferahans. A pair of secondary borders in pistachio green, employing an extremely finely etched, lyrical floral meander, flanks the main border. Its unusual corridor size is perfect for an entryway or seating area where you want the entire rug exposed. Happily, it has been well cared for and remains in remarkably good condition overall.
