A beautiful antique Persian Dabir Kashan, handwoven around 1920, featuring an elegant ivory field adorned with intricate scrolling floral vines surrounding a richly ornamented medallion. The deep navy border is filled with finely detailed palmettes and arabesques that beautifully frame the composition. Woven with high-quality wool on a cotton foundation, this rug exhibits the fine weave, refined drawing, and balanced color palette that distinguish the celebrated Dabir workshop. Its combination of artistry, quality, and timeless design makes it an excellent choice for both collectors and sophisticated interiors.
The ivory field, elegant scrolling floral arabesques, and finely drawn palmette medallion are characteristic of the workshop of Hajji Mohammad Hassan Dabir, one of Kashan's most respected master weavers. The rug displays a finely woven wool pile on a cotton foundation, with crisp drawing and excellent balance between the ivory field and the rich navy border.
The color palette features deep indigo blue, ivory, soft sky blue, and rich madder red, creating a refined and timeless appearance. The intricate floral design, graceful vinery, and harmonious proportions make this an excellent example of a classic Dabir Kashan.
