Persian carpet bachtiar 298x403cm

Purchased in the early 1960s. ! ITS COLORS ARE SUPERB BUT THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE! P This Persian carpet is a mechanical version of very good quality with natural materials such as wool and cotton. First owner. 43 threads out of 80 in a square of 10cm side, or about 344000 points per m2. It suffers from some small snags (see the last 4 photos which represent the 2 main snags front and back) and needs to be cleaned but in a very good general condition. Unfortunately, the original tag got lost in a move but there is still a number; 33606/1, handwritten in a corner. The field of this Persian carpet was inspired by both the gardens of the Bakhtiari tribe and the moud patterns.This carpet plays with the colors of the Orient in its most beautiful patterns. The design of its ornaments is inspired by Persian gardens. Over the years, the so-called traditional garden design has gained popularity in the Western world. The small squares illustrated with plants and animals evoke the luxuriance and plant abundance of a Persian paradise. Its high knotting density, combined with the strength of the thread, promises lasting pleasure, confirmed by its honorable age since it is already over 60 years old. The main border is composed of various motifs, and mainly cartridges of herati motif (motif composed of a central rose encased in a rhombus, the tops of the rhombus are surmounted by smaller rosettes) and decorated with Arabic calligraphy.
