LAVER KIRMAN, Southeast Persian, 8ft 9in x 11ft 6in, Circa 1875. Signed by the highly respected weaver, Tausensian, this exceptionally nuanced Laver Kirman antique carpet is a masterwork of refined elegance, standing out even among the numerous exquisite examples of this well-respected Court style. Its entrancing, multi-layered medallion is animated by a resplendent assortment of tiny, individually crafted flowerheads, each radiating toward equally painstaking cornerpieces and borders.
