Name: TREE OF LIFE with Birds of Paradise Antique Kerman Lavar | Incredible Colors
Size: 10.8 x 14
Age: Antique; C. 1920-30's give or take
Pile: Low with age-related wear and patina, to be expected for a piece of this age! Lovely distress in perfectly worn spots; subtle color run in some minor areas, and with age and particularly this family of rug they wear a very certain way so all of the threadbare spots to the foundation we’ve filled in with foundation as well as a couple small holes (size of a nickel) that we've all secured and filled in foundation and in general just tidied up any and all areas that needed some love - so, if age, character, imperfection, and story-telling through a past life isn’t your jam, this might not be your piece - but if you understand the nature of ancient rugs and welcome the idea of restoring and securing a rare old textile all by hand to give it another generation to live its best life - this is for you!! If this piece was untouched and in mint condition it would be DOUBLE or more the price! ✨
About: WOW!! My favorite TREE OF LIFE design is surrounded by Paradise Birds, Cypress Trees, and Dainty Flora Growing from Top to Bottom!; doesn't get better than this! Lovely colors with eggshell, earthy hues, cool blues and just the perfect amount of warmth - this is a well-balanced piece and a great example of this ancient and symbolic art packed with good juju and positive energy. Did you see the 4 Butterflies in the corner?!
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. See all the pictures of this piece for distress.
Any questions about this rug or need more pics, 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.
