Filled with rare green hues, this 130 to 140-year-old antique Persian Laver Kirman rug captivates with its one-of-a-kind sunburst medallion formed from eight tree-bearing lobes. A profusion of floral garlands radiates outward into elaborate cornerpieces and an especially spacious border of blossoming mistletoe. Its precise symmetry and effusive floral forms exemplify the elegant Persian Court rug aesthetic.
