This is a magnificent central motif carpet from the city of Qom. It is made out of wool, sorry, out of silk. Accordingly, it has a very high knot density count. This is a marvellous attribute of the carpet because it allows for clear depiction of the motifs. It is also very good for absorbing and reflecting colour. Silk is an ideal material for weaving carpets. It has also the advantage of strength and durability. The size of the carpet is also important. It is 2 metres by 1.31 metres, meaning that whilst it is not particularly large, it is of such a size that it could readily be included in many rooms of a house, whether the house is traditional or modern.
This carpet is of such a nature that it would suit various decor styles. The aspect of this carpet that is most impressive, however, is its design. It is a classic design in that on either side, north and south of the central rosette pattern medallion, are drops. This provides a classic shape for the carpet, which is time-tested and true. Despite the myriad of motifs, the beauty of the flowers, and the complexity of the colours and design, there is massive harmony to this carpet. This is achieved by the genius of the designer and reflected in the competence of the weavers. The central medallion has darker colours to the base colour of the main field, which is largely a whitish eggshell ivory colour. That base colour is an excellent foundation because it enables the depiction of the floral motifs in such a way that it is gentle to the eye.
There is no sense of concophony or imbalance. What is here is very harmonious and very conducive to a sense of well-being.
The colours in the central motif are darker than in the field of the carpet, but are reflected beautifully in the spandrels of the carpet. These spandrels are a wonderful framing of the field and the central medallion. The main guard border contains enormous variety and shapes of flowers. This is spring. We are in a time of growth and opportunity.
The carpet itself promises that life continues, that perhaps in the heart of winter we have forgotten these things. Purchase this carpet and it will be a permanent reminder to you, even in periods of winter, that spring is guaranteed to also have its turn. This carpet is a signed carpet. It is beautifully done. It is a carpet that will be treasured by the lucky owner and generations to come.
