KIRMAN 'Vase' Persian Carpet Fragment,First Half of the 17th Century”
400-420 years old
christiesinc An Important 'Vase' Carpet Fragment Join Louise Broadhurst, Head of Oriental Rugs and Carpets, as she explains how a once-mighty Persian carpet has come to be dispersed across the globe, from Paris to Boston to Berlin.
This highly important and superbly preserved Safavid Kirman carpet fragment, belongs to a group known as 'Vase' carpets, a term coined by the art historian Dr. May Beattie because of the mosaic-patterned Chinese-style vases that appear in their design.
The present section is extremely fortunate in that it remains beautifully balanced in design and proportion and includes all of the salient aspects of the design, including not one but two vases where others have none.
Through its complex design and skilful play of colour, the audience is transported to a garden of Paradise. An Important Kirman 'Vase' Carpet Fragment, South East Persia, First Half of the 17th Century. Estimate: £400,000 - £600,000. Art of the Islamic and Indian Worlds including Oriental Rugs and Carpets – 1April, London.
