(High-Collectible) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Elite camelhair rugs, such as this incredible 175-year-old one-of-a-kind Northwest Persian, are highly sought for their creative designs, versatility, and unique camel hue. Here, a completely original design scheme places a regal, exquisitely refined grand medallion within a gracious arrangement of ten orbiting floral bouquets on an enticingly subtle diamond latticework background of pale, burnished golden camelhair. The sense of spaciousness is breathtaking. In every aspect, the drawing style is impressively refined. Yet, in a delightful twist, the flowers that emerge from the circumference of the jewel-like medallion are teasingly irregular and very organic, suggesting movement and the vital emanation from a garden in full bloom. The kaleidoscopic main border and its flanking array dramatically contrast with the field's quiet openness. A plethora of jewel hues, including deeply saturated carnelian reds, saffron-orange highlights, deepest midnight indigo etching the design, and even seldom-seen aubergine at the very center, fully animate this stellar and highly collectible folk art masterpiece.
