拍品專文

The horizontal rows of elegant interlocking leafy split-palmettes on the present carpet form a repetitive sequence that is an interesting variant of the more common Garrus design. A similar design variant can be seen on a Bijar wagireh (Edoardo Concaro and Alberto Levi, Sovrani Tappeti, Milan, 1999, p.86, pl.66). Similar large-scale tre-foil palmettes appear on a carpet sold as part of the Dani and Anna Ghigo Collection, in these Rooms, 12 May 2016, lot 315 and another sold in these Rooms, 2 May 2019, lot 238. The vivacity of colour and the elegant design of these carpets lent itself to the demands of the European interior particularly in the second half of the 19th century, and as a result a number of examples are found today in country houses through Britain and Western Europe.
