(High-Decorative)
An exquisite carpet in outstanding condition at 130 years old, this classical-designed room size Persian carpet offers an original, predominantly warm palette that evokes a more contemporary aesthetic with only glimpses of dark blues. Ably displaying consummate craftsmanship, this supremely refined carpet brings a plurality of botanical shapes to life and would become an incomparably distinctive floor covering in a beautiful home. The rich rosy coral field supports a round, fluted medallion and corner pieces that display gold, peach, pistachio green, and pale lilac tones. This palette is expanded to include steel and deep marine blues elsewhere in this dazzling antique carpet.
