Antique Distressed Saraband Rug w/ Paisley Pattern

Sale price$18,000.00

Hand-knotted in pure wool circa 1920-1929, this 10x13 antique Persian Saraband Rug. It highlights an all-over repeating boteh pattern woven in a gorgeous, blue and soft beige palette. Admirers of the craft and collectors of fine textile art will appreciate the inspiration drawn from historic village weaves of the Persian sensibility, and the meticulous hand-knotted construction, which captures the essence of classic and timeless Saraband style. The fine detailing showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that define this antique Persian rug. These geometric intricacies celebrate the profound legacy of Middle Eastern weavers who transformed utilitarian textiles into highly expressive, enduring works of art. What makes it particularly exciting is this being from a beautifully preserved period of 1920s weaving featuring repeating geometric boteh patterns in slate blue, pale ivory, and beige, that take center stage, creating a rhythmic and commanding visual presence. The integration of the Saraband region's reverence for organic paisleys, coupled with a distinctly sophisticated tonal flair, results in an artwork that embodies the essence of this revered design tradition. Framed by a finely articulated, multi-tiered border system, the carpet presents an incredibly cohesive visual rhythm that serves as a deeply grounded, sophisticated foundation.
