#6942 Khorassan

This is circa 1880 Khorassan measures 10’1” X 17’3”. It has a large lobed pulled medallion with a sky blue center surrounded by peach, filled with meandering vines and flowers and large chrysanthemums, all on a navy blue ground. The ground design is vases filled with flowers connected vertically with a tree of life motif.  The corners are made-up of quarters of the medallion.  The border is peach with a meandering vine and flower motif.  The two reciprocal borderers have the same design on an ivory ground.  This is a very interesting rug.  It is absolutely full pile except for areas of the peach.  This dye was obviously made with a corrosive mordant which has caused the wool to erode in places. Even so this rug is 95% full pile.  The ends and sides are complete.  It is clean and ready to go.  It is a very good value for the money.  The buyer pays the shipping of $150.00.
