Antique Sultanabad, Persia, late nineteenth centuryThe field of this sumptuous antique Sultanabad has a richly detailed Herati pattern on a deep blue ground. Only when we stand back does the underlying allover diamond effect this design begin to emerge, and then only subtly. The elegant 'turtle' palmette border on a red ground offers a contrast in design, scale, and coloration to the field, giving the carpet the right touch of balance and variation.
