{"product_id":"11237-10x14-persian-handmade-kashan-vintage-rug","title":"11237 - Persian Kashan Oversized Rug 9'8\" x 13'8\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis charming rug sets a broad slate blue frame around its smoke gray field. On a smoke gray ground, small flower sprays in slate blue and brown are scattered across the whole field. At the center sits a small pale blue diamond medallion, soft at its outline. The slate blue frame widens at each corner, its inner edge cut in lobes and steps. The main border is gray brown, carrying graceful blue vines and rosettes, with a few rose touches along one end. Narrow brown guard stripes run on either side of it. The pile is low. It brings slate blue and smoke gray into a room, a cool, quiet ground for lighter furniture and pale walls. At 9'8\" by 13'8\", 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 1600s, when Poland and Persia had close relations, the Polish nobility ordered many gold-threaded rugs from Kashan. 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 keeps a small pale blue diamond medallion at the center of a smoke gray field, scattered with flower sprays in slate blue and brown. A broad slate blue frame widens at each corner in place of separate spandrels, its inner edge cut in lobes and steps. The gray brown border carries blue vines and rosettes, with a few rose touches along one end.\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.
