- Filed under: Antiques
- Item #151
- Age: Late 19th C. or early 20th C.
- Country: Persia
- Size: 3'5" x 5'
- Price: On request
- Not really a new acquisition, I've owned this rug for many years but haven't chosen to offer it for sale before. Rugs employing the "souf" technique have a 3 dimensional quality as the background is intentionally cut shorter than the foreground elements creating a bas relief effect. Pieces of this quality were reserved for use when an "honored guest" visited a family. The guest would be offered the rug as a place to sit signifying their elevated status. I'm unable to take satisfactory pictures of the piece but can assure you that it's a remarkably beautiful artefact of 19th C. Persia. SOLD
