2 x 2'27 Persian Qum 100% Pictorial Rug

This exquisite 2 x 2'7 Persian Qum rug is a quintessential example of luxury woven into fabric. Crafted from 100% silk, the rug offers a sumptuous feel and a lustrous sheen that is second to none. The intricate design showcases a complex tableau of motifs that are rich in symbolism and history. Its main color, a deep, vibrant red, sets a bold background for the myriad of colors adorning the surface – from the calming blues and greens that evoke the tranquility of nature to the soft creams and whites that bring a sense of balance and light. Pops of gold and subtle hints of burgundy add a regal touch to the rug, while black accents provide striking contrast.

The central design features a stylized chandelier, which in Persian culture is often a symbol of illumination and enlightenment, hanging over a vase that traditionally symbolizes immortality. Surrounding this are mirroring cypress trees, representing eternal life, and motifs of wildlife and florals, which are emblematic of the lush gardens of paradise as described in Persian poetry and art. The border complements the central scene with its detailed geometric and floral patterns, adding to the overall narrative woven into this piece.
