Old silk FERAHAN (Persia), late 19th century. Dimensions : 210 x 133cm. Technical characteristics : Silk velvet on silk foundations. Density of 490,000 knots in one square meter. An anthracite main border serves as a support for an impressive tangle of multicoloured plant interlacing. Two fuchsia counter borders with garlands of flowers complete the frame. The ivory field, highlighted in old gold, is the setting for an oblong fuchsia medallion whose heart is a floral composition resting on an anthracite bed, also oblong. Delicate fuchsia foliage, with varied, exuberant and polychrome flowers, caps and covers the entire field. Bibliography : - Splendour of the oriental carpet of A. BRONIMANN page 77
