Background-
This rug exhibits the hallmarks of a classic Persian Kashan, known for their exceptional craftsmanship and intricate designs. Kashan rugs are typically characterized by their curvilinear patterns, often featuring a central medallion surrounded by dense floral motifs, palmettes, arabesques, and sometimes animal figures, all woven with remarkable detail and precision. The rich navy blue field with complementary shades of coral, light blue, and cream is a common and highly esteemed color combination for rugs from this region. Kashan is one of Persia's oldest and most historically significant carpet-weaving centers, and its rugs are among the finest and most sought-after, representing a pinnacle of Persian weaving art.
