Antique Persian Rug
SK4301 Afshar Dowry Rug
Age: 1850 -1875
This published Afshar dowry rug may look very familiar because this design has spawned hundreds, if not thousands of copiers from the Qashqai, Lori and other southern Persian weaving centers. Slowly degenerating into clumsier and more poorly dyed examples over time. Fantastic color and a presence that can only be truly appreciated in person. The condition is excellent, having the original edges and end finishes. S.W. Persia around 1850-1875. 4-6″ x 5-11″/ $OR
