Description

An early example of an antique Fereghan carpet woven around 1870, the colours are just fantastic!  The design of connecting geometric elongated flowers with vines is quite exceptional using a variety of early dyes, delicate pale blues and greens and muted red tones.  The subtle yellow dye and green dyes are famous for Fereghan carpets and used beautifully.

Fereghan carpets are generally one of two types, the first being a full field decoration of floral motifs based on Persian designs, most commonly with the geometric ‘Herati’ design.

. . .

 The second has a full medallion, usually with a contrasting colour, the edge of which is surrounded by a zig zag or jagged border. The dyes have mellowed beautifully due to the carpets age allowing it to be placed in a drawing room or dining room with ease.
