Kashmar Persian Rugs
This magnificent semi antique Kashmar Persian rug measuring 12'12" x 9'8" presents a captivating symphony of navy blue, madder red, and ivory tones that dance across its meticulously hand-knotted surface. The central medallion design, known as Toranj, commands attention with its intricate Shah Abbasi palmettes and flowing Eslimi arabesque motifs, while rich accents of gold, forest green, rust red, terracotta, brown, burgundy, and ochre create depth and visual intrigue throughout the composition.
Originating from the historic Khorasan province of Persia, this Kashmar masterpiece represents four to six decades of natural aging that has enhanced its character and refined its palette to perfection. The weavers of this region have maintained their ancestral traditions for centuries, creating rugs renowned for their exceptional durability and sophisticated color harmonies that reflect the desert landscapes and ancient trade routes of eastern Persia.
The medallion serves as the spiritual heart of this design, symbolizing the cosmic center and divine protection, while the surrounding Shah Abbasi palmettes represent abundance and prosperity in Persian culture. The intricate Eslimi borders flow like eternal rivers around the composition, creating a sense of movement and continuity that speaks to the infinite nature of Persian artistic expression.
At nearly thirteen feet in length, this substantial rug transforms any living space into a gallery of Persian artistry, whether anchoring a grand dining room, defining a spacious living area, or creating an elegant foundation for a master bedroom suite. The navy blue field provides a sophisticated backdrop that complements both traditional and contemporary furnishings, while the warm terracotta and rust accents add inviting warmth to any interior palette.
This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted Persian rug elevates your home with authentic craftsmanship that cannot be replicated by machine production. Each knot was individually tied using asymmetrical Persian and symmetrical Ghiordes techniques, creating the dense, durable foundation that allows Los Angeles Home of Rugs to offer this exceptional piece as a lifetime investment in beauty and cultural heritage.
