Laver Kirman 'Tree of Life'
9ft 1in x 12ft 2in
2nd Quarter, 19th Century
With a magical glow enhanced by the passage of approximately 175 years, this precious room size carpet's incredibly wide ranging color palette creates a sublime atmosphere that is truly seldom found, even among other very early Persian carpets. Using subtle hues such as soft celadon, aubergine, cobalt, khaki and rose, its elaborate “trees within trees” design is given exceptional delicacy, as each distinctly rendered botanical detail is seamlessly integrated into the overall composition. The variety and great clarity of these elegant blossoms, garlands and fronds invites the eye deep into the lush visual fabric of this Laver Kirman art rug.
