Original Véramine carpet, Persia, Tehran region - Lot 86
Original Véramine carpet, Persia, Tehran region
Late 19th century.
Wool velvet on cotton backing.
An ivory and cream abraché field is adorned with a seedbed of multiple trees of life, foliage and flowers in polychrome, where many colorful birds flutter about. Like the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden of Eden, they are each inhabited by a reptile.
The frame of this vision of paradise is composed of four navy and abraché brick counter-borders, with florets enclosing the main sky border, adorned with undulating plant branches enriched with exuberant composition.
Great elegance.
Dimensions: 335 x 265 cm
