(High-Collectible) ("Best-of-the-Best Sold in 2017") A collector’s gem, this authentic, extraordinarily preserved, quite early Persian Afshar rug offers a stunning rendition of the tribe's “Cane Design”. Its alternately colored vertical columns are an incredibly difficult pattern to accomplish so precisely especially without a cartoon. Here the craftsmanship is superb. The juxtaposition of light and dark tonal values creates a mesmerizing effect, enhanced by the intricate scrolling meanders that fill each narrow column. An engaging, expertly combined palette of potent natural colors, most notably saffron for the golden yellow, animate this piece, creating a seamless marriage of design and color.
