{"product_id":"11198-9x13-persian-handmade-kashan-vintage-rug","title":"11198 - Persian Kashan Oversized Rug 9'4\" x 13'1\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eFour dark blue corner pieces frame the pale field of this lovely rug. The beige field is filled with graceful blue vines that scroll into wide circles, set with blue rosettes, palmettes and small leaves. At the center sits a handsome lobed diamond medallion on a cream ground, outlined in blue, with a rosette, a flower seen from above, at its core. Small palmette pendants sit above and below it. The corner pieces are heavy lobed scrolls around a small beige opening. The main border has a pale muted pink ground, deeper pink in patches, and carries a blue vine scroll with rosettes and leaves. Narrow blue guard stripes with a small repeating chain run on either side of it. The pile is low across the rug, and the colors read pale. It settles into a quiet room, its blue scrolls and pink border lifting the beige ground. At 9'4\" by 13'1\", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story goes that the three Wise Men of the East set out from Kashan to follow the Star of Bethlehem. The formal Persian rug is most closely tied to the central Persian city of Kashan: a central medallion, spandrels in the corners, and a field of curling vine and palmette. This rug has that plan: a lobed diamond medallion at the center, dark blue corner pieces of heavy scrolls, and blue vines that circle the beige field in wide rings set with rosettes and palmettes. Its palette stays light, with a pale muted pink border, and the dark blue corners give the strongest note.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. Hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, vintage, approx. 50 years (1970s). Condition: professionally washed \u0026amp; cleaned. It ships folded and fully insured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Storied Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68026282967353,"sku":"AL_11198_285x400","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11198_1.jpg?v=1794182165","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11198-9x13-persian-handmade-kashan-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
