This is a very well made Kerman Persian Oriental Rug showing wonderful condition. The rug is from the 1920's and has an impressive floral design. Kerman are one of the traditional classifications of Persiancarpets. They are named after Kerman, which is both a city and a province located in south central Iran, though, as with other such designations the term describes a type which may have been manufactured somewhereelse. Kerman has been a major center for the production of high quality carpets since at least the 15th century. In the 18th century, some authors considered the carpets from the province of Kerman, especially at Siftan, tobe the finest of all Persian carpets, partly because of the high quality of the wool from the region, known as Carmania wool. This is a very rare size rug being 18ft 9in by 11ft 8in
