(Connoisseur-Caliber) ("New Arrivals Gallery") The painstakingly formulated composition of this exquisite Mohtasham Kashan speaks of the elegance and grandeur offered by this legendary style. It provides a view of an idealized paradisiacal garden through the lens of courtly Persian architecture, with unusually detailed columns laden with olive branches supporting an ornate archway. Beyond, an opulent vase is the eternal fount of a prolific gardenscape that beckons the viewer. Cypress trees and perching birds pay homage to the immense trophy urn amidst an explosion of flowering boughs that tuck among each other in a way that allows every distinctive bloom its own space to flourish. Through the genius of its design, the composition doesn’t seem overly busy, and, combined with the cool metallic hues on top of a warm carnelian ground, actually exudes tranquility. The lush border of knotwork-like vines and blossoms effectively protects this idyllic hideaway. Virtually full pile condition is a testament to the careful handling of this exceptionally finely woven piece.
