Antique Persian Kashan Rug

Kashans almost always have a central medallion with a main field colouring of henna-rose or dark blue.

The field is covered with meandering roses which emanate from the corners of the rug and turn and twist until the field is filled, but not crowded, creating a lovely balance and soothing beauty.

Kashans are fairly thin in texture and are highly prized by the Persians.
