Ardabil Rug
Famous Rugs and Carpets
By the 19th Century, fine Oriental rugs were appearing in numbers in the United States. Used here almost exclusively as floor coverings, they were very quickly accepted for their practical durability as well as their beauty. Through many changing styles in interior decorating, they have been sought by collectors, designers, and discerning connoisseurs.
Perhaps the most famous rug in the world is the Ardebil Carpets (2 large rugs), a 16th Century creation now in London's Victoria and Albert Museum whose sacrificed twin resides in the LACMA museum. Its creator, the famed Maksoud of Kashan, devoted his artistry and 30 years of his life to the creation of this magnificent rug. The Ardabil rug contains more than 33 million hand-tied knots, and measures 34'6"x17'6". Through the centuries, the Ardebil design has been duplicated again and again, which very skillfully rendered Kerman Rugs were manufactured by Dilmaghani in the earlier part of the 1900's bearing the Cyrus Crown brand name. Much speculation surrounds the original Ardabil carpets, including what their original intended area was, and whether they were in fact woven side-by-side. Regardless of many postumations, these without question are among the most recognized rug motifs, weaving interpretations which spread to many weaving areas in and around Iran, Pakistan, India and China.
Recently a great revival of interest in fine Oriental carpets has been noted. Stimulated by a widespread recognition that these creations – over and beyond their current beauty – represent an investment whose value can increase over the years. The revival has also helped spur a new opulence in floor treatments – hardwood floors dramatically enhanced by Oriental rugs of varied styles and sizes; exotic concepts that have utilized Oriental carpets in living areas already covered with carpeting. This rug-on-rug effect is similar to floor treatments favored in palatial homes in earlier times.
