Isfahan in central Iran produced some of the most technically refined carpets in the Islamic world. The formal medallion, intricate arabesque and restrained palette that defines Isfahan work has been refined over four centuries. This piece is a genuine Iranian Isfahan woven in wool pile and silk highlights on a silk base at 728 knots per square inch, a very high knot count that gives the design a resolution approaching pure silk work.
The ivory ground with camel and brown border at 5 ft 3 in x 8 ft 4 in is warm and refined. A genuine Iranian Isfahan on a silk base at 728 knots per square inch is a serious piece. The silk base gives a different firmness and handle from cotton constructions, and the silk highlights in the pile add considerable luminosity.
