("New Arrivals Gallery") This is a premier quality carpet of the ever-popular Persian Mahajiran Sarouk style, woven a full hundred years ago, yet in virtually perfect condition. It presents the highest quality of materials, craftsmanship, and artistic inspiration. Its glowing, richly detailed floral composition, dramatic spacing of its design and magnificent saturated hues reveal great artistic depth. The field contains a central cruciform design surrounded by lush floral sprays and cascading blossoms, all set upon a glowing deep indigo ground. These garlands are arranged with compelling symmetry, while each detail is rendered with individual attention.
