(High-Collectible) ("New Arrivals Gallery") A rare masterpiece, this 175-year-old room size rug captures the style’s inimitable folk artistry with unabashed vigor and electrifying color ways. Over-large buoyant blossom depictions in rust and camel tones float upon a deep, dimensional pool where, by virtuoso color striations attained during dyeing, reflections of light transpose from lapis to sky blue and sapphire to vivid azure. Animals, spontaneous botanical abstractions, and partial figures amidst other enigmatic ornamentation populate this totemic dreamscape. Millenia-old, the serrated “Ashik” symbol is rarely used in Bakshaish weavings, but here it dominates the ivory border with its Bronze Age simplicity. Eight-pointed Stars of Wisdom and dragon’s energy bearing ‘Z' and ’S’ glyphs support this connection to ancient energies. We are amazed at the very good condition of this spectacular piece.
