Extraordinary Connoisseur-Level Bakshaish Provides The Essential Foundation For The Modern Signature Home
Whether they live in Rutherford, Yauntville, Woodleaf or Larkmead, our clients find that searching for an art-level antique rug is a unique buying experience. Many of our clients become interested in antique rug collecting and connoisseurship once they begin living with just one antique carpet. In the client’s home pictured to the left (above on mobile), see how the soaring artistry of the very best 19th century Persian carpets is often the key focal point by which a distinguished decor excels, making possible captivating heights of refinement and enjoyment that may otherwise be out of reach. Such is the case with this exceptional allover Bakshaish carpet, which provides the defining feature of a grand entertaining space. The deeply personal, continual variation of its spacious allover pattern and extraordinary sapphire blue to aquamarine abrash striation of the oversize carpet animate the high-ceiling space in a way impossible to duplicate. Rustic hand-hewn beams, flagstone hearth and tasteful fabrics all are defined by their fascinating interactions with this art-level 19th century carpet, allowing each to achieve an even more satisfying resonance.
Luminous, Innovative Artistry of Exceptional Antique Bakshaish Carpet Profoundly Animates California Casual Home.
In the Calistoga client’s home pictured to the right (above on mobile), the casual, comfortable elegance of this inviting home is magnificently enhanced by a one-of-a-kind 19th century Bakshaish carpet. A glowing vinery-filled reserve of soft sand immediately resonates with the diffuse earth tones of the room, while a sensitively abrash-striated floating medallion of stunning aquamarine blue recalls the sunlit space just outside. Its rare oversize dimensions are uniquely appropriate to the high-ceilinged great room. The weaving’s folk art character and joyful, playful spontaneity cheerfully establish an atmosphere where family and guests can find stimulating, enjoyable company.
