Reference: ART3001970

A large raver kirman wool rug, finely woven with large floral desgins, lotus and chrysanthemum flower heads, groups of floral sprays and foliage. Kerman is a city and as well as a province in south central Iran. With its 60,000 inhabitants and surrounding villages, it is one of the major rug producing areas of Iran. Unlike other parts of Persia, Kerman existed with relatively no interference from invasions, mostly due to its provincial isolation. As a result, the arts in Kerman flourished. Antique Kerman rugs are easily recognizable with curvilinear graceful floral designs in a brilliant assortment of colors. 535 by 315 cm.
