(High-Decorative) This beautiful Laver Kirman rug boasts the extraordinary complexity for which this genre is renowned and is meant for an exquisite formal setting. Abhoring spaciousness, the weaver placed finely drawn flowers in a myriad of sizes covering every square inch. The etched drawing of the central medallion is particularly exciting. Together these elements thoroughly animate the entire composition with a sense of circular movement that extends even into its borders. Also tantalizing are the rich shades of cranberry red and warm buff. This sophisticated turn-of-the-20th-century rug offers heavy pile to enjoy many decades of enjoyment.
