Persian hand-knotted carpet, with a maroon-red field with a central rosette of lobed profile in ivory tones whose plant motifs harmonize with the compositions of borders and stylized bouquets of the four corners. It has six borders, the central one wider and decorated with vegetal patterns. The predominant tones are red, white, ochre, beige, green, blue and white. These carpets are knotted in the sacred city of Ghom, in central Persia. The material used to make them is silk, which makes them thin and compact. These carpets are very well elaborated and, in some cases, are decorated in great detail.
