Descrizione dettagliata lotto
The approx. knot count is 8.5H x 9V per sq. cm.
In one end there is the clearly knotted number '172'. We know of one weaver of silk Tabriz rugs who signed 202; this appears to be another weaver.
The present example copies a small silk Safavid Kashan rug dating from the 16th Century which was formerly in the Schlossmuseum in Berlin and is now in the Gulbenkian Collection in Lisbon (Kurt Erdmann, Seven Hundred Years of Oriental Carpets, Glasgow, 1970, pp.62 and 64-65, pl.68; Persian Art. Calouste Gulbenkian Collection, Lisbon, 1972, pl.26).
