Extremely Fine Old Qum Carpet Medallion design Wool Pile

 

The city of Qum is a recently established centre for the weaving of urban style rugs with workshops appearing there from around 1927 onwards. It rapidly became a significant and important centre for the creation of technically extremely fine silk rugs and carpets, though fine wool pile rugs are also made there. The repertoire of their designs is varied, ranging from designs based on Safavid Persian traditions of the 16th and 17th Centuries, through to individual creative designs of unparalleled technical and artistic visual excellence, which can often be described as ground breaking.

This extremely fine Persian Qum carpet displays a ground breaking individual design which celebrates the skill of the Qum weavers demonstrates a full understanding with confidence to weave original designs to the standard of excellence in the history of rug weaving. The central medallion format with quarter medallion spandrels is traditional to established classical urban Persian compositions though the extraordinary detail of the overall pattern combining minute stars and alternating flower heads is a decorative ‘tour de force’ of an original style consistent with which rapidly became a part of established Persian Qum tradition.The border pattern is equally as tenacious and original with a tile pattern variation which magnificently compliments the field decoration. Stronger tones of colour have been used to define the composition features and pattern details chosen to great effect to maximise the visual impact and define the tiny pattern details.
