Join us for this month’s Persian & Oriental Rugs & Carpets sale, presenting a rich and varied selection of hand-knotted pieces that highlight the craftsmanship, design and regional diversity for which these weavings are renowned.
The catalogue features carpets from some of the most celebrated weaving centres, including Kirman, Kashan, Nain, Mahal, Sarough and Bidjar, each with distinctive characteristics in both design and palette. From finely drawn medallion compositions to bold all-over patterns, the sale reflects the enduring appeal of traditional Persian design.
The collection includes elegant carpets with ivory fields and intricate floral medallions, alongside examples with deep indigo and rich madder red grounds, densely decorated with scrolling vines, palmettes and stylised floral motifs. Larger statement pieces are complemented by more versatile works, all unified by careful hand-knotting and balanced composition.
With its combination of scale, colour and traditional craftsmanship, the sale offers an excellent opportunity to acquire authentic Persian and Oriental rugs suited to a wide range of interiors. Browse the catalogue and place your bids today.
