Ravar Kerman / 15716

This Ravar Kerman antique rug, 8' 10" x 10' 7", presents a softly faded field of cream and red, anchored by a layered central medallion and surrounded by scrolling floral ornament. The border carries a quieter echo of the same language, giving the composition a balanced, timeworn frame. Woven in wool, it has a gently abraded surface and subdued contrast that lend depth without obscuring the design. Circa 1915 - 1930, it reflects the refined decorative tradition associated with Ravar Kerman, with an atmosphere that is at once formal, softened, and warmly aged.
