(Connoisseur-Caliber) (“WINTER 2019 NEW ARRIVAL EVENT”) In the coveted, seldom-found approximately 12-½ x 16 size, this stirringly artful 19th century Sultanabad oversize Persian carpet possesses a very unique pattern language and numerous rarely found hues of color, most notably in its range of seldom-found green and lighter steely blue tones. Its field offers an intriguing, spaciously drawn grid work of lyrical motifs linked by a subtle lattice of exotic, feathery leaves. On this warm, soft-coral-toned base is a variety floral forms expressing a dynamic diversity of artfully rendered, highly detailed flower heads, blossoms and leaves, all placed in a pattern format of linear sophistication. This lush interior is perfectly complemented by an elaborate series of five borders. The condition of this over 140-year-old treasure makes it a veritable dream, with even heavier pile and no notable restoration.
