The city's knotting tradition reaches back to the Safavid era, and Kashan workshops have produced rugs of recognised refinement for centuries. The classical Kashan vocabulary — a central floral medallion with corner spandrels and a curling floral inner field — has remained one of the most architecturally readable and most valued of the Persian design families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece was hand-knotted in \u003cstrong\u003eKashan, Iran\u003c\/strong\u003e, in the \u003cstrong\u003eearly 20th century\u003c\/strong\u003e, from \u003cstrong\u003e100% fine wool on a cotton foundation\u003c\/strong\u003e. The composition follows the classical Kashan vocabulary: a lobed central floral medallion in navy anchors the field, framed by navy corner spandrels of dense floral work and a navy main border of palmettes and scrolling vine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003eColour and Composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe palette is built on a luminous \u003cstrong\u003esalmon-coral ground\u003c\/strong\u003e carrying a clearly visible \u003cstrong\u003eabrash\u003c\/strong\u003e — the soft horizontal banding of tone that arises from hand-spun, naturally dyed yarn and marks an authentic antique piece.
