A masterfully hand-knotted Persian tapestry depicting a classical still life composition of ripe fruit—melons, peaches, grapes, pomegranate, and vine leaves—rendered in rich, saturated tones against a deep, painterly background. This textile artwork evokes the grandeur of European still-life painting traditions while showcasing the meticulous detail and texture unique to fine Persian knotwork.

Professionally framed in a deeply carved giltwood frame with baroque-style embellishments, this piece is both tactile and visually striking. The frame alone, custom-made for the piece, cost $400 and was selected to complement the depth and texture of the textile, elevating it to true gallery-standard presentation.
