Kashmar Persian Rugs
This magnificent 13'0" x 10'0" Kashmar Persian rug presents the timeless Shah Abbasi pattern in a sophisticated navy blue and ivory palette, enriched with rust red, gold, emerald, and crimson accents that create visual depth and warmth. At 40-60 years old, this semi-antique treasure showcases the refined weaving traditions of the Khorasan province, where master artisans have perfected their craft through generations of dedication to Persian rug making excellence.
Kashmar rugs originate from the historic city of Kashmar in northeastern Persia's Khorasan province, a region renowned for producing some of the finest Persian carpets since the Safavid era. The weavers of this ancient city have maintained their traditional techniques while developing their own distinctive style characterized by exceptional wool quality and intricate knotting methods. This particular rug represents the golden age of Kashmar weaving, when artisans achieved perfect balance between classical Persian motifs and regional aesthetic preferences.
The Shah Abbasi design featured in this remarkable carpet draws its name from the legendary Safavid ruler Shah Abbas I, celebrating the palmette and floral motifs that flourished during his reign in the 16th and 17th centuries. The central medallion commands attention with its geometric precision, while the surrounding field displays delicate vine scrolls and botanical elements that seem to dance across the navy blue foundation. Each rust red palmette and ivory flower represents centuries of symbolic meaning, with the colors traditionally signifying nobility, purity, and the eternal cycle of nature's renewal.
The sophisticated color harmony of navy blue, ivory, and rust red creates an anchor for any interior space, while the touches of gold, emerald, and crimson add layers of visual interest that reveal new details with changing light throughout the day. This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece elevates living spaces with its commanding presence and authentic Persian heritage, making it an ideal centerpiece for formal dining rooms, executive offices, or spacious family rooms where its generous proportions can be fully appreciated. Los Angeles Home of Rugs takes pride in offering such exceptional pieces that bridge the gap between historical artistry and contemporary home design, ensuring each rug finds its perfect setting in discerning homes across Southern California.
