| PERSIAN JOSHAGAN: A classic example from the village of
Joshagan, which lies in the mountainous region, between the city of Isphahan and Tehran.
The Joshagan is renowned for centuries for its characteristic design pattern of repeated
diamond shapes in the field with a stylized geometric medallion.The ivory ground colour in
this piece is somewhat rare. One of the unique characteristics of these carpets is the
faithful adherence to a standard design, presented in various proportions. An excellent
acquisition. |
