An old silk on-silk Kashan rug with central lozenge and hanging lanterns within contrasting spandrels on an ivory ground. 213 cm x 129 cm

Condition Report

Generally good for its age, some signs of broken wefts coming through the pile, some slight self sculpting in the white areas.

I have taken some images of slight blemishes but when checked I can't see any repairs or holes, and I have included some images of the rear of the rug

The pile is as stated a low clipped silk and it appears to be on a silk or part silk foundation.

Fringing now gone.

Please see images for clarification.
