285. An impressive Herati-pattern Persian Carpet

285. Provenance: Mahal (?), Western Persia

Age: Circa 1940

Size: 345 x 289 cm

Condition: Generally good. Some small areas of lower pile. It has been cut & restitched, though this is barely noticeable.

Notes: Mostly natural dyes. The repeat of the classic Herati floral pattern is soothing and the colours are harmonious. A great furnishing carpet for a reasonable price.
