如果说德黑兰是伊朗的首府，那么伊斯法罕则可以说是伊朗的灵魂。这座古老的城市几千年来被几代统治者所青睐，成为当时的政治文化中心，盛极一时。这里的宫廷、广场，乃至一砖一瓦都因为这段辉煌的历程而夺人耳目。在16-17世纪，伊斯法罕在阿巴斯王的统治下达到了历史巅峰，被世人誉为“艺术天堂”。
这张完美无瑕的羊毛毯绘有狩猎场景，经典的鸟兽图案不禁令人回想起16-17世纪萨非王朝的动物地毯。形态各异的花草鸟兽，精心细致的描画编织，无处不尽显宫廷风范。在明亮的洋红色边界的环绕中，充盈着各种鸟类、人物，和瞪羚格斗的狮子，还有中国人熟悉的凤凰图案，各种不同的鸟和动物们平和共处，宛如置身天堂之中，画面既有写实主义风格，也颇具幻想色彩。这条地毯奇妙的设计灵感来自 Illiati人的游牧生活。他们择草而居，每天打猎、放牧、吹笛，过着一种原始而自在的生活。地毯的中央有一只吠犬正在保护绵羊免于其它掠食者的伤害。在古波斯，最佳的运动方式就是狩猎。因此我们可以看到狩猎图案出现在萨非王朝的许多艺术品中，如银器、铜器制品。而伊斯法罕在手工制品方面的优势地位一直保持到今天。
该毯采用全植物染色，用最优质的克尔克羊毛编织而成，全毯编结紧密，每平方米达81万个结点，全毯共135余万个结点。品相极佳。适宜装挂于室内，极具收藏价值。
A splendid and flawlessly-crafted early Isfahan carpet in a classical Persian bird and animal design, strongly reminiscent in both composition and palette of the great Animal Carpets of 16th and 17th Century Safavid Persia. The diverse exotic creatures which fill the foliage of the glowing magenta field are meticulously rendered in the brilliant Safavid Court design style. Massive bird forms, a Lion and Gazelle combat group, wonderfully imaginative Phoenix symbolic conflict dominate the upper part of the field. As the design ascends the carpet, against a sinuous three-plane lattice of 'Vase Carpet' design, the various birds and animals depicted gradually become more peaceful and overtly Paradisical in Character. This fantastic and artistic design shows Illiati life. The Illiaties live in small green openings in the nature. Their life is in the nature, bringing their herd out to graze everyday, lying in open tents nearby during the day and playing the flute to enjoy life and to converse with their herds, letting them know their caretaker is around, telling them when to follow him to go home. In the middle field of the carpet there is a dog barking, protecting the sheeps from other predators.
