Here is a beautifully woven and exciting antique carpet: An antique Sultanabad rug that was woven in Persia during the latter years of the 19th century. Antique Persian Sultanabad rugs and carpets are admired for their beautiful compositions, which tend to be highly evocative of classical Persian design. This particular example, with its unique color field and borders, is no exception to this rule. A crisply drawn arabesque ‘mina khani’ or trellis design repeats in all-over symmetry across the rich green field of this incredible antique Sultanabad. The ivory detail of the palmettes, flowers, and serrated leaves gives the trellis an almost jewel-like, sparkling effect that continues into the main border as well with is interlacing ‘turtle’ vine scroll set against green color. The particular interaction between meticulous design and superb color puts this among the very best antique Sultanabad rugs. Beautifully woven and highly representative of an important antique Persian rug style, this antique Persian carpet is a truly wonderful and captivating example.
