Semi Antique Persian Kerman Rug - 11'1" x 16'2"

This distinguished Semi Antique Persian Kerman Rug, measuring an impressive 11'1" x 16'2", exemplifies the refined weaving traditions of Iran's historic Kerman province. Meticulously hand-crafted by skilled artisans and subsequently enhanced through professional distressing and refinishing processes in the United States, this exceptional textile represents a significant cultural artifact. As an embodiment of Persian artistic heritage, it continues a weaving tradition with origins in the Bronze Age. The historical significance of such textiles is contextualized by the earliest documented examples, which date to the culturally flourishing Safavid dynasty of the 16th century—a period widely acknowledged as transformative in Persian rug production.
