Description
Remarkable ancient antique Farahan carpet from the last 1/4 of the 19th century with a stunning early scrolling design with the most exuberant colours! A rich red background is a great colour to allow the gold tones, teals, sage greens and pink dyes to flourish, with varying floral motifs all over, a decorative carpet easy to place in any room. Especially with no large central medallion or large corner spandrel designs. With a large scale border design, this pattern leans slightly more geometric in style and overlapping vines again with exquisite early natural dyes.
The wool pile is good with minimal low areas of pile height on this 140 year old carpet. A large decorative antique Persian carpet which would look magnificent in a drawing room or dining room. Woven in the golden era of weaving in Persia these are becoming increasingly rare to find with these exciting dyes and condition.
We offer the service of viewing any of our carpets & rugs in-situ anywhere in the UK, a free, professional service. Having helped private customers and interior designers find the perfect carpet for the last 30 years.
...
Fereghan or Farahan 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.
