corkwool on cotton
approx. 61 x 51 cm


An elegant Kashan Cork from Persia, early 20th century, woven in exceptionally fine cork wool on a cotton foundation.
Measuring approximately 61 × 51 cm, this intimate piece displays the classic Kashan aesthetic: a richly saturated midnight-blue field filled with finely drawn floral sprays beneath a softly arching medallion. The crisp ivory outlines and vibrant reds create striking contrast, while the intricate border frames the composition with precision and harmony.
Small in scale yet highly detailed, this rug embodies the refinement and technical mastery for which Kashan weaving is celebrated. A beautiful accent piece with enduring character.
