"Red and blue are two complementary colors used in this Persian rug's design for creating contrast, and give value to all Persian rugs' decorations. These two colors are alternated on the Persian rug's borders and field. The main border for example has red for the background and blue for the ornamentations while the field has blue as the background color and red for the ornaments. This Persian rug's amazing part is represented by the blue background area. This beautiful hue of blue is so clear and expressive that it can be compared with the sky in a shinny day or with the sea. The ivory and red based ornaments are more visible against this shade of blue. We can see the high level of details given by the 550 kpsi value. All over the Persian rug boteh motifs are mostly used."
Isfahan Rugs
Isfahan has long been one of the most important manufacturing centers for Persian rugs. The rugs here are usually designed using an ivory background and the ornaments are symmetrical and balanced. We find in the central part of the rug a medallion that is surrounded by floral motifs and palmetto leaves. The quality of these rugs is very high and the colors used for the interior motifs are blue, brown, ivory, green and more, all of them featuring an obvious naturalness.
