{"product_id":"11227-10x13-persian-handmade-kerman-vintage-rug","title":"11227 - Persian Kerman Oversized Rug 9'6\" x 13'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis lovely rug pairs a crowded ivory field with a wide brick red border. Over the ivory field, graceful red vines scroll in every direction, carrying palmettes, rosettes and sprays of small flowers. Large curling leaves in dark green turn between them. The field is an all-over repeat with no medallion, and pale blue ribbons loop around its center. The handsome border carries a fine scrolling vine and a row of palmettes in ivory and blue. Camel guard stripes run on either side of it, set with small flower heads. A small inscription cartouche sits in the outer guard at one end. The pile is low, and a few patches have worn low where the foundation shows. It brings the brick red of the border and the quiet ivory of the field to a large dining or sitting room. At 9'6\" by 13', it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the first half of the 20th century Kerman rugs were sold in the West under the name Kermanshah. Kerman in southeastern Persia worked in the softest palette of the major Persian centers: powder blue, ivory, rose and pale green, often on a pale ground. This rug has that pale ground, an ivory field crowded with red vines, palmettes, rosettes and sprays of small flowers. It has no medallion; pale blue ribbons loop around the center, and dark green leaves turn between the flowers. The wide brick red border frames all that ivory in warmth, with palmettes in ivory and blue.\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":68032619872569,"sku":"AL_11227_290x395","price":2500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/6964\/5369\/files\/11227_1.jpg?v=1794238987","url":"https:\/\/storiedrugs.com\/products\/11227-10x13-persian-handmade-kerman-vintage-rug","provider":"Storied Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
