This is a stunning handmade vintage large traditional Persian Kashan of the finest quality in mint condition. Hand-knotted in the 1960s by master weavers, this rug is made from high quality wool that comes from the softest parts of the lamb. It is handmade with superior craftsmanship, a high knot count (or KPSI, knots per square inch) and only vegetable and other natural dyes. The traditional floral and medallion design is exquisitely woven in intricate details by hand on a crimson red background with a spectacular medallion of robin's egg blue, Prussian blue and ivory, which appear prominently again in the elegant borders.  This rug was likely woven for aristocracy and could have easily been made for a palace.  The floral details throughout the medallion, the open field and the border are unique for their incredible array of colors that go beyond the typical colorway for this style of rug.  Note the moss green, coral, fern green, shell pink, dusty rose, aquamarine, carnation pink, mint green, peach, salmon, Tiffany blue and countless other colors.  The rug's beautiful border has an elegant complementary floral and vine design in the same exquisite shades. Size:  10'8"x14'4"
