A finely hand-knotted contemporary Persian Sultanabad kelleh, woven with hand-spun wool and naturally dyed yarns, displaying the elegant classical floral aesthetics associated with the Sultanabad region. The carpet features a soft light olive field that provides a serene backdrop for an expansive allover design of stylized palmettes, lotus blossoms, cloudband motifs, and gracefully curving vinery arranged in a balanced, symmetrical layout.
The palette—derived from traditional vegetable dyes—includes muted shades of celadon, sky blue, saffron, rose, and soft ivory, all harmonizing to evoke the refined tones of 19th-century Sultanabad workshop carpets while maintaining a contemporary freshness. The border system comprises an ivory main border with scrolling floral elements flanked by complementary guard stripes, creating a cohesive and dignified frame.
Woven on a durable cotton foundation with a dense hand-knotted wool pile, this kelleh exemplifies high-quality modern Persian craftsmanship inspired by classical Ziegler-era Sultanabad traditions. Its elongated format, subtle coloration, and elegant botanical drawing make it well suited for hallways, galleries, or formal interiors.
