11 x 19 - Red Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug - 77359

77359 Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug, 11'05 x 19'04. 

Timeless appeal meets perpetually posh in this hand knotted wool antique Persian Bakshaish rug. The decorative detailing and sophisticated color palette woven into this piece work together resulting in a relaxed yet elevated feel such as American traditional, New England coastal style. Taking center stage is a superimposed rose and navy blue medallion anchored with palmette pendants at either end and patterned with botanical forms. The abrashed red field features an allover pattern composed of stylized palmettes, serrated leaves, florals and foliage. A repertoire of angular botanicals echoing the designs from within the field radiate from the corner spandrels. Sky blue edging with tiny pearls outline the medallion and reappear as cloudband swirls in each corner. The straightforward form and stately decadence reveal an amalgamated affinity for its prominent color juxtaposition. Elegantly framing the composition is a traditional Samovar turtle vine scroll border enclosed with double carnation meander guard borders, pulling together colors from throughout into a unified, harmonious design. Reflecting traditional sensibility and versatility in classic iterations of red, beige and navy blue make this make this large antique Persian area rug a beautiful expression of American, British, or French patriotism.

Perfect for a large entertaining space, hotel lobby, lounge area, drawing room, country club, academic library, golf locker room, trophy room, private Chambers, great room, wine cellar, executive suite, conservatory, state room, royal suite, billiards room, owners retreat, dining room, living room, or formal sitting room. Rustic yet refined, this oversized Persian rug would complement mountain living for luxury ski chalets, secluded hunting lodges and rustic ranches found in Montana, Colorado, Lake Tahoe, Wyoming, or the Adirondacks.
