8.3 x 10.11 | Elegant and Sophisticated Classic High-End Antique Kerman
*All of our antique & vintage rugs are professionally cleaned prior to being listed.*
Name: Elegant & Sophisticated Classic High-End Antique Kerman
Size: 8.3 x 10.11
Age: Antique
Pile: Low with patina and other age-related wear; 2 small areas with holes the size of a quarter or so each and some worn areas that are threadbare; this piece is priced accordingly, however we can re-weave those holes and tidy up/secure the worn areas if you want; to re-weave them it'll be around $500-700 for both, or we can patch them for about half of that. We can secure those worn areas just so they don't unravel for a couple hundred dollars as well. We can secure both sides of the fringe for you as well which my grandfather also does by hand; that'll be around $200 or so each side ($400 total). So, all in all, to bring this piece back up to speed; you're looking at 1000-1500 or so. Some people like rugs worn and originally untouched, and some can hide the worn or distressed areas under a sofa or bed etc so they'd rather get the rug for cheaper - that's why we didn't do the work to this right away. You can always call me to discuss anything and/or I can answer any questions or send you more pics or whatever you need! 414-405-6553.
About: This rug is truly a classical antique rug. When you think of a high-end piece that captures the essence of these city rugs, mixed with the high-quality materials used in terms of dyes and wool as well as workmanship, you get pieces like this. The wool used is hand-spun lamb wool and the quality of the weave is how you get the crispness and clarity of the lovely design. Butter yellows, wheat, teals, blue-green, camel, mocha, and this deep berry-magenta color that fills most of the rug. Beautiful floral motifs, willow tree motifs, whimsical branch, and airy stylized tulip and daisy-inspired motifs as well. Really a beautiful piece with some genuine wear and a threadbare spot and two small holes at one corner. Perfect for a space with furniture like a living room, dining room, bedroom, office, or even high-end retail space!
This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one available.
Because of the nature and age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities and age-related wear are likely to exist and are not considered defects.
Any questions about this rug? Don't hesitate to reach out!
We always recommend a high-quality custom cut pad for any and all rugs; these pads are made for hand-knotted rugs. They create a body and support the knots of the rug, as well as prevent it from slipping and sliding.
A note from us to you: Buying a rug is special; it's not just you finding the rug, but also the rug finding you. Think about the many coincidences that have to occur for you to find the rug of your dreams. Our rugs are woven by nomads in the villages and remote mountainous regions of the major rug weaving districts across the world. All of our rugs are genuinely old and one-of-a-kind. Like anything old and unique, they are filled with character, soul, and story. The story of a rug is something we think about a lot; who was the weaver(s)? Did they weave it for personal use, commerce, to gift, or trade? Who was the second owner, and the third!? Sometimes the little motifs and symbols in rugs can help tell the story, but we will never truly know - there's something beautiful about that. Alas, our joy is to curate these incredible pieces that speak to us, and to pass them along to their new owners to be enjoyed and cherished for many years to come; both continuing to add to the story of the rug, and to the story of the new owners.
