Description

A vintage Kirman carpet woven around 1940-50 in excellent full pile and condition.  A fine weave and highly detailed floral design with stunning medallion and elaborate corner spandrels.  Rich in colour and extremely hard-wearing, this production of carpets from Kirman have stood the test of time.  Acquired from a private estate, it has been looked after and we have only had to clean this carpet to bring up the amazing colours.

Visit our showroom by appointment to view this carpet up close, or request a home visit to try in-situ or purchase online and we can swiftly deliver large decorative carpet to your home.

Kirman has long been a town dedicated to carpet weaving in the south east of Persia. Kirman carpets are always high quality, woven on a cotton foundation, designs consist of central medallions with floral motifs.  From the 17th century Kerman or Kirman has been a city notorious for fine eleagnt weaving and the famous vase carpets of the Safavid period (1501-1722) are regarded as the most valuable and exquisite in weaving history. Early examples from the 17th century have set records for sales at auctions.
