The source of the rug comes from the book Seven Hundred of Oriental Carpets, Hanna Erdmann, University of California Press, 1971 pg.173. This offset pattern is composed of ascending shield-like palmettes flanked by leaf-like wings designed for 17th to 18th-century rugs from Azerbaijan, the North-west Persia area. Very similar palmettes, drawn in a curvilinear manner and combined with identical forked leaves, can be seen on a few examples of workshop carpets made from the late seventeenth century onward in Herat in Khurasan province, east Persia, and the same pattern known as Harshang design was used in the Caucasus in the eighteenth century, as well. The design of the rug is interpreted by our designers, and vivid colors are used for this rug.
