Mid-Century Ersari Carpet
The Ersari tribe of Central Asia, residing in Southern Turkmenistan and Northern Afghanistan, have a long and rich history in the world of antique rugs. Their weavings are widely appreciated for their quality, rich palettes, and their distinctive stamped ‘elephant’s foot’ patterns, making them charming, durable pieces. This wonderful 20th Century Ersari carpet is a fine example, woven finely in lustrous wool offering a vivid, crisp clarity to its drawing. This piece, woven in natural vegetable-dyed wools, boasts a bold red field and simple repeating all-over pattern, adding a real sense of depth and richness to its simple drawing. This carpet is in very good practical condition for everyday use. A classic example, with a tribal charm which would suit a wide variety of settings.
