Superb antique Kashan rug from Central Iran. Kashan silk rugs of this era are very sought after because of the quality of workmanship and materials. Two trees are rising from the base to the niche at the top with beautifully drawn flowers and a vase in between with leaves and birds on a cream background. The border is decorated with flowerheads contained in a niche cartouche on a red background and mustard colour guard borders. The high-quality silk is dyed using natural plant extracts throughout.

There are areas showing signs of wear, as shown in the images, which is reflected in the price. All the elegance of a fine silk antique piece at a very affordable price.
