| Antique Silk and Metallic Thread Kashan, Persia, circa 1900 - An elegant blue and red star medallion appears within a scalloped window of ivory set against a soft red outer field in this beautiful little homage to classical Persian rug design. The rich yet delicate palette combines with the lace-like effect of vines and blossoms to create a musical counterpoint of form and color in the grand tradition for which Kashan weavers are famous. |
