Sarouk Rug
Kerman Rugs
Mid to late 19th century Persian Kerman Rugs are among the more sough after antique carpets. Often large rugs in size and design scale, these carpets are among the best in true artisan craftsmanship in Persian rug history. Although much debate revolves around Laver/Raver Kerman and Kermanshah distinction in antique Kermans, the following is accepted to be true:
Finer antique Kermans are often termed as Kermanshah. While the difference between Kermanshah and Kerman is several hundred miles, it is accepted that many of the carpets labeled as Kermanshah are simply distinguished by their higher knot density. Many suggest Kermanshah and Kerman were woven in the same area: The city of Kerman. However, all carpets headed for the West would be routed through the hub of Kermanshah en route. This additional qualifier of shah was subsequently added to higher grade carpets to further distinguish them.
One thing is very consistent between Kerman and Kermanshah rugs. True antique Kermans are very distinct - very nice quality and thin pile. Distinguishing the rugs even further was the specific use of cochineal dyes. While often used in other carpets, the specific saturation in Kerman carpets was very consistent. Cochineal can be identified by the deep red, with purple-blue tint. The aged patina of a Kerman carpet is quite spectacular and graceful.
One of the most distinguished commissioner of Persian Kerman Rugs, dating back 150 years ago in Persia, is the Dilmaghani Company. Still in business today, the Dilmaghani Company is responsible for some of the finest Persian Tabriz, Sarouk and Kerman production known to the 19th and 20th centuries. Dilmaghani Kermans pre-1920 may be recognized by Persian inscription at the top center of the carpet. Dilmaghani Kerman carpets post-1920 may be identified with their highly ornate Cyrus Crown trademark Brand Rugs: A symbol of more than a century and a half century of excellence in the Oriental rug business.
About the Author
Is there anyone out there who is an expert on Karastan carpets(Design: sarouk; pattern 755)?
Rug is 9 x 12 & has #891754. Bought by grandparents used. Believe circa 1920s. I would like to know value.
Contact a rug appraiser, try a local antique rug merchant, or specialty rug cleaning service listed in the yellow pages for referrals to a professional. Many things affect value other than age size and pattern. Then expect to sell for about half the appraised value. I hope this helps, this is a beautiful rug!
