Hand-knotted approximately 40–50 years ago, this impressive carpet has been crafted using very fine Kork wool on a traditional cotton foundation, with natural dyes as described in the original listing.

Exceptional Persian Kashan Craftsmanship

Kashan is one of Persia's most celebrated centres of traditional carpet weaving, internationally admired for its intricate floral patterns, fine wool and sophisticated craftsmanship.

This beautiful example features a finely executed all-over floral composition, displaying flowing vines, delicate blossoms and ornamental botanical motifs.

The detailed drawing and balanced arrangement reflect the refinement associated with traditional Persian city weaving.

Beautiful Midnight Navy Floral Design

One of the most attractive features of this carpet is its rich midnight navy field, beautifully decorated with intricate floral motifs.

Soft ivory and cream flowers provide contrast against the dark background, while powder blue, antique gold and warm terracotta details introduce colour and depth.

The coordinating floral border frames the composition, creating an elegant and harmonious overall appearance.

The absence of a dominant central medallion gives the all-over pattern a continuous decorative flow, making this carpet particularly suitable for spacious interiors.

Very Fine Kork Wool and Natural Dyes

This vintage Persian Kashan carpet is hand-knotted using very fine Kork wool on a cotton foundation.

Kork wool is prized in fine Persian weaving for its softness, refined texture and suitability for detailed craftsmanship.

The original listing describes the colours as natural dyes, contributing to the carpet's rich and traditional appearance.

The fine weave, attractive wool pile and beautifully detailed pattern make this a particularly desirable furnishing carpet.

Vintage Condition and Professional Cleaning

Approximately 40–50 years old, this Persian Kashan carpet is in great condition with a good wool pile.

It has been professionally cleaned and is ready for immediate use.

The carpet is suitable for heavy domestic use, offering a wonderful combination of traditional craftsmanship, decorative beauty and everyday practicality.
