Fine Persian Esfahan Seirafian Rug Medallion design Kork Wool (Cashmere) and Silk

 

Persian Esfahan rug designs consist of sublimely delicate patterns of arabesque tendrils, palmettes, and cloud-bands in rich magentas, blues, and saffron golds. The ‘revival’ of the Persian urban carpet industry of the 19th century and twentieth century resulted in Esfahan continuing the style and consummate technical virtuosity of their classical forerunners, although often with a sympathetic colour palette in tune with ever changing contemporary tastes. From the early years of the 20th Century In pursuit of technical excellence, established in Classical times there appeared a number of highly skilled designers determined to establish and maintain excellence in woven carpet art. The most famous of these designers was Sadegh Seirafian who along with family members over generations succeeded in maintaining excellence and creating some of the finest decorative carpets of the 20th Century Pahlavi dynastic period. The finest examples are often signed by the master weaver, and this rug bears an inscription of the Seirafian family.
