(Connoisseur-Caliber) This entirely distinctive room size formal carpet with its surprisingly modern neutral field tone presents a stunning, uniquely conceived overall pattern from a style that overwhelmingly produced medallion carpets. Here gorgeously rendered ornaments are repeated in an intricate placement that includes slight intentional asymmetries as invitations for further exploration. From this long acknowledged provenance of respected Persian carpet weaving, this piece’s distinctive time-softened color palette of brassy tones for the field and cinnabar in the border communicate a profound gracefulness and tranquility.
