拍品專文

The present carpet displays a formalised version of the Harshang design and is closely related to the Afshan design, both of which were extremely popular in North West Persia and the Caucasus in the eighteenth century. It appears that the Harshang design was first used in the Khorassan district and in origin ultimately derives from the Safavid Isfahan 'In and Out Palmette' design. A number of different variants were produced in various centres, as discussed with reference to four examples in Paris by Pamela Bensoussan ("Four Harshang pattern Carpets in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs", Hali vol.3, no.3, 1981, pp.288-290). The PETAG workshop (Persische Teppiche A.G.), was a German initiative which produced high quality carpets in order to combat the decline in quality encountered as a result of the mass production of the late 19th century. The carpets produced there are identified by their superior quality and the distinctive 'signature' formed of three çintamani roundels generally located in the far corner of the field or border pattern.
