(High-Collectible) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Discerning collectors relish the incomparable folkloric style and visceral impact of Bakshaish weavings. As an extraordinary high-level collector’s piece, this Persian village rug stands apart for its deeply expressive folk charm, exceptional balance, and harmonious color presentation. Its central medallion features a single flowerhead from which lotuses spring above and below, with leaves of gold and pale apricot. Outside in the parchment reserve, sensitively rendered inky indigo garlands enclose flame-like pendants, orchestrating a swirl of botanical activity. The astonishing attention to detail employed by the virtuoso weaver comes through in the compelling shapes of each motif and a master's outlining technique that compels the viewer to explore each nook and cranny. Its palette is classic Northwest Persian, with time-tested hues compatible with a vast variety of home interiors. Its many subtleties of tone have mellowed over time and shimmer with the unreproducible patina earned over a century and a half. Still in very good pile condition, this piece would effortlessly inspire the veneration of art lovers, whether on the floor or the wall.
