This 3'5 x 5 Signed Pure Silk Persian Qum Pardis pictorial rug is a masterfully woven artwork depicting The Last Supper. Created entirely from pure silk, this piece showcases exceptional clarity, refined detail, and luminous color depth characteristic of high-quality Qum silk weaving. The composition reflects the Pardis tradition, where storytelling and fine craftsmanship merge into collectible textile art.
Design and Motifs
The central scene presents The Last Supper with expressive facial details, layered gestures, and carefully balanced proportions. Each figure is individually articulated, conveying movement, emotion, and narrative depth. Architectural elements, including arched windows and interior panels, frame the scene and guide the eye inward toward the focal figure at the center.
Border and Framing
The pictorial field is enclosed by a finely ornamented border featuring repeating floral and palmette motifs. These borders provide visual balance and contrast, using classical Persian symmetry to frame the figurative scene without overpowering it. Multiple guard borders add depth and refinement to the overall composition.
Colors and Their Placement
Ivory and soft gold dominate the background, creating a luminous base that allows the figures to stand out clearly. Warm beige and light tan tones define architectural elements and floor areas. Rich burgundy and deep teal blue are used in garments to emphasize hierarchy and movement. Olive green and muted gray provide grounding accents, while charcoal outlines sharpen facial features and contours. The silk fibers give the colors a subtle sheen that shifts with light.
Materials and Craftsmanship
Hand-knotted entirely from pure silk, this rug demonstrates extremely fine knotting typical of Qum pictorial works. The silk pile allows for high-resolution detail, smooth transitions between colors, and a soft, elegant surface texture. Precision knot placement ensures long-lasting structural integrity while maintaining visual sharpness.
Signature and Workshop History
This rug is signed in Persian script within the lower field, indicating its origin and confirming its authenticity as a workshop-produced Qum Pardis pictorial piece. Signed silk rugs from Qum are highly sought after for their artistic and collectible value.
