(High-Decorative)
This finely woven, jewel-toned decorative Persian town carpet enraptures the eye with its novel use of seven dramatically contrasting borders framing the smaller canvas of the densely patterned field. Deeply saturated, robust hues and rich contrasts make this piece highly memorable. The freeform nature of the flowers in the inner and outer 'main' borders adds an element of sweetness and individuality.
