Story

The Amoghly brothers are the single most important and famous carpet weavers in the entirety of Persian carpet history, with a royal warrant from Reza Shah (1925-1941) for all the Pahlavi palaces. Their carpets were notoriously large as a result and generally ornate and complex in design. This exceptional piece is a quite the exception. It belongs to their experimental phase in the late 1930s and early 1940s when they launched a line of Art Deco style carpets that were, to the Oriental eye, shockingly minimalist and abstract. This is why they are so desirable and collectible nowadays. The Amoghly signature floats next to one of the set of triple booths in opposing corners: simple, direct and powerful.
