10' x 12'9" ft A+ 'mint' (top condition possible 1/10,000) for a genuine hand knotted antique rug (early to mid 1900s estimate), a beautifully crafted authentic piece hand knotted from finest wool and natural dyes by skilled weavers. Persian Iran rug. Professionally cleaned. No stains, holes, tears, animal or smoke. Even original full pile. Double knotted upon two foundation layers about 100 knots per square inch per foundation layer (150x2 = 300kpsi overall). Old world laborious vegetable dye techniques still unmatched. Organic dyes oxidize over the century giving lighter and darker tones of red and blue, a beautiful affect called 'abrash' by collectors. Lustrous red spectrum field with accents of dark navy blue, light blue, saffron, and more! Naturally derived dyes from pomegranate, beet, madder root, vermilion, indigo, lilac, weld, larkspur and more. Amazingly elegant, highest quality, best materials, massive and stately for a lifetime of value. *Signed by master weaver*. See all 10 photos in this post.
