Oosters tapijt 1850 - 1900

"Oosters tapijt" is a traditional Persian rug, likely dating from the late 19th century, that is 257 cm high and 155 cm wide. It was likely woven by an Afshar weaver, as the central medallion, in the form of a repeating pattern, is a style characteristic of that specific tribe. The rug features a dark blue field, a prominent feature of Afshar carpets, decorated with a repeating geometric pattern. The rug also has a wider border than the majority of Persian rugs. This unique design, utilizing a combination of geometric patterns and colorful motifs, makes "Oosters tapijt" a beautiful and intriguing piece of textile art.
