(Connoisseur-Caliber) Exemplifying the artistic heights achieved by Persian classical weaving some 150-170 years ago is this regal oversize Laver Kirman carpet with its highly unique design of multiple medallion full and partial medallions across an expansive field. Its main border is embellished with a series of finely rendered cypress trees with dense blossoming foliage beyond. Its signature sublime color palette is offset here by a dramatic, inspired use of nearly black midnight indigo to breathtaking effect. In this famed rug-making center since the 15th century, highly talented weavers evolved an aesthetic of timeless appeal that was funded by the Persian Court, used as gifts of state, and for prominent citizens.
