DescriptionA masterpiece from the Persian looms. In soft delicate colors. The double medallion and corners of old ivory and pale blue, containing a dainty floral design of rose, tan, brown, green and old blue. The rich old rose background surronding the delicate medallion serves to bring out the great beauty and character of this piece. The eleven borders are most beautifully blended and diversified by delicate floral patterns, which carry outward the splendid character of the center.
Persian silk. Very large. Rose, ivory, red blue floral design.
