Mid-century Kerman, quietly radiant

4x5.5 Vintage Kerman Rug

A roundel adrift on red

Homes need warmth that doesn’t shout. The 4x5.5 Vintage Kerman Rug brings saturated cochineal red balanced by ivory and indigo florals, so even small spaces feel complete. Its mostly even wear reads as beautifully lived-in rather than precious. Recently professionally cleaned, it’s ready to meet the day-to-day of a real room.

Color that gathers people

At just under 4 by 5½ feet, this Kerman slips beside a sofa, under a reading chair, or at the foot of a bed without crowding the layout. The scalloped rococo contouring and floral bouquets draw the eye inward, turning a corner into a destination. Circa 1950s work attributed to Mehdi Dilmaghani & Co. adds quiet provenance you feel every time you cross the threshold.

For the collector at home

Someone who lives with vintage pieces, favors saturated color, and wants a compact Persian rug with character and age.

Place and live

Set it beneath a lounge chair or in an entry to define a welcoming pocket of color and pattern.
