Description
MECHED carpet (Iran), mid-20th century.
Dimensions: 401 x 308 cm.
Technical specifications: Wool pile on a cotton backing.
A large, multi-lobed, arrow-shaped marine medallion, covered in multicoloured floral scrolls, features a cruciform floral composition in chestnut and sky blue, set against a vegetated background.
This imposing and magnificent medallion rests on an oblong, undulating cherry-coloured field sown with floral stems, framed by prominent spandrels featuring navy blue arabesques, adorned with small botehs and from which emerge sublime sky-blue floral vases.
The main border features broad, undulating foliage in navy, ivory, ruby and cream, embellished with stems and polychrome plant motifs.
The frame is completed by six secondary borders in navy and ivory featuring garlands of small flowers.
These seven borders symbolise the steps leading to paradise. The inner border is serrated and the outer border is in ruby.
There is only one word to describe it: sublime!
