150 years old BAKHTIARI Persian Carpet! design name : FARADONBE
This originally conceived rug embraces the European cabbage rose design referred to in Persia and the Caucasus as ‘FARADONBE’ or ‘Foreign Flower’. Within a field of decidedly elemental tribal motifs, an elegant burnished gold-frame is placed holding a bouquet of beautifully rendered cabbage roses, silhouetted on ivory. Rose water was first distilled in Persia and is still produced there to today so the connection to the rose flower is historical.
Price upon request!
5' 1" x 6' 10"
155cm x 208cm
Circa 1870-75
It is interesting the rest of this rug’s field is dominated by small elemental tulip shapes, not particularly prominent in the tribe’s lexicon, possibly referencing another historical export, Persia’s bulb-based flower to Europe! The Bakhtiari are masters of jewel toned dyeing as is evident in this rug’s potent, diverse color palette ranging from shades of raspberry, rose, indigo, jade, bronze, and cerulean and including abrash color shifts.
