  A signed Yazd-Kirman carpet, southeast Iran, early-20th century
  394cm long, 246cm wide
• Notes:
  This beautifully decorative antique carpet comes from the oasis town of Yazd in the important rug-producing area of Kirman. Yazd is an ancient settlement that has been the centre of the Zoroastrian religion for more than 2,000 years. Traditional carpets of this type are characterised by their lustrous wool, soft colours and elegant floral designs adapted from the local textile and shawl-weaving industries. The inscription cartouche contains the name 'Yazdan Parastan', a reference to its master weaver or to the workshop where the carpet was woven.
