Antique Red Navy Blue Persian Manchester Wool Kashan Large Area Rug

About the Item

This antique Manchester Wool Kashan, circa 1880-1900 is one measures 10.4 x 17.10 ft. and is an excellent example of this variety of carpet. It was manufactured by the Taftanjian Company, a very prominent manufacturer of Manchester Wool Kashan carpets. Manchester Wool Kashan carpets are given such name in attribution to Manchester London, where the wool used in production was imported from Australia refined, then later exported to Kashan for weaving. This is a very special grade of wool from the Merino sheep, which was quite costly to acquire and only reserved for very fine weavings. The result of which is an incredibly strong and resilient pile with a high sheen and near silk-like appearance. Manchester Wool Kashan carpets in very fine condition are highly sought after Please note that one corner of the carpet has been repaired to match the rest of the carpet. The repair is very good and very difficult to see when standing over the carpet. The image of the carpet shows a small dark corner on the lower left.
