Many New Rugs in Recently! Many Special Pieces!

This first piece is a very finely woven Turkoman rug. A little under 5 x 7. This type of Afghan rugs is the most finely woven rug that the Turkoman weavers make. The color in person is a beautiful deep red with great depth. There is also a delicate gold used sparingly and a deep green, only as an accent color. Very beautiful piece.

This close-up below gives a clear idea of the details in the design. 

This is another Turkoman rug of the same type but just a little less finely woven. Also, a very interesting and enchanting rug. 

This is another piece in the 5 x 7ish size. This design is called Mamluk. The design is ancient, from Egypt, the rug is a new Afghan rug. 

This piece is about 4 x 6 and captivating with beautiful colors in deep jewel tones. Afghan rug, Karaja design.

 Lovely small Persian tribal rug in the Tree of Life design with Cypress and Willows.

This is a spectacular smaller Bijar rug, approximately 3 x 5 and only can be described as woven perfection. 

Here is the whole rug. 

Last but not least is this lovely, very finely woven Persian silk rug. Isfahan, with silk pile and silk foundation. This is a vintage piece in perfect condition. 3 x 5.

There are other new additions but just thought I would share a few of the pieces I felt were noteworthy.

Antique Persian Rugs Recently Acquired for my Gallery!

Moving into 2019, I have recently crossed " over 20 years in business" and 13 years at my gallery here in Sebastopol, CA. Always learning and still very much in love with the Oriental Rug Universe.

It took a long time for me to embrace antique rugs as a concept. I would see other dealers selling worn out, challenged pieces, when first starting out or look through old auction catalogs, indicating sales prices with estimates in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and just shake my head. Now, finally, I am beginning to see what are the attributes and irreplaceable qualities on an antique Oriental rug of merit.

The design, color choices, layout, and general composition of a handwoven rug is a communication. Starting with the selection of hand-spun high-quality wool, the dyes used, the dyer's skill to create unique and beautiful colors, the drawing of the rug, any intentionally placed anomalies (intentional mistakes) and the overall composition; there is a communication that occurs when one beholds a woven work of art.

After observing so many enthusiastic and sometimes wild responses (client diving onto a rug to losing their power of speech, both of which, have occurred) in response to rugs I have shown over the years, I not only believe this, I know it.

Here are a few of my recent antique acquisitions, all of which are currently available at my gallery.

This first piece is a 3'4" x 4'6" Antique Persian Hamadon. Circa 1900. Senna, Bijar design. Beautifully saturated vegetable dyes with deep, clear colors and lots of spark! Excellent condition with no wear to the pile. The field design is the classic Herati design.

This next rug is an antique Shekarlu Qashqai rug! 2nd Half, 19th Century. Size is: 6'2" x 7'8"  Shekarlu Qashqai rugs are characterized by their white borders and fields filled with stylized depictions of animals, flowers, trees and more. A beautifully put together antique Persian Carpet, this piece has "heart". It is currently displayed on a wall at my gallery!

This last piece is an antique Persian Kurdish rug; Sanjabi Kurd. 19th Century. 4'4" x 7'4" This Persian carpet has lustrous wool, full pile, no condition issues, and extremely compelling in person. Investment quality antique rug. Amazing condition for the age, woven with all vegetable dyes in beautiful colors!

Here is a recent video that includes two of these rugs, which you might enjoy.
Thanks for checking in!
