This lavish antique Kashan has scalloped diamond medallion with richly articulated floral detail and grand finials. The medallion is set against an ivory field defined or enclosed by undulating terracotta cornerpieces. A terracotta inner medallion echoes the cornerpieces just as the ivory quatrefoil at the very center echoes the field color. In the same way all these forms share the same type of floral vinescroll detail. The overall effect, an expanding series of concentric forms, is reminiscent of the ripples on a pond. A complex arabesque palmette vinescroll of classic Persian type makes up the main border, set against a dark blue ground to frame the field emphatically.
