Vintage Persian Afshar Rug

No. 28779
Persia, Mid 20th Century
5 ft. x 7 ft. 5 in.
(1.51 x 2.24 m)

A Wool pile with symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. Older Afshars were woven on wool, but in the 1920s, there was a shift to the more functional cotton. This transitional scatter features the characteristic pattern of superimposed panels or cartouches in dark blue and old gold, each with triple points at both ends, set against a light blue field. An ecru, three-diamond pole medallion is adorned with hooks. The classic herringbone tree motif decorates the ecru border. In good condition, with a moderate yet firm weave.
