Discover a piece of Persian heritage with this semi-antique Bakhtiari rug, hand-knotted in the 1940s by tribal artisans from Southeast Iran. Measuring 3.12 by 2.3 metres, this vintage rug showcases the enduring craftsmanship of the Bakhtiari people, celebrated for their detailed patterns and robust weaving techniques.
The rug features a rich red field embellished with an intricate lattice design. Within each section, delicate floral motifs and stylised Cyprus trees flow seamlessly, creating a dynamic sense of movement and harmony. The colour scheme blends deep forest greens, warm rustic oranges, latte highlights, and soft ivory tones, offering a balanced and inviting aesthetic.
Constructed with a fine wool pile on a strong cotton foundation, this rug is both durable and comfortable underfoot. The use of natural plant-based dyes contributes subtle colour variations, known as "Abrash," which add depth and character unique to handcrafted rugs. These organic dyes ensure a sustainable and eco-friendly product.
Ideal for spacious living rooms, dining areas, or studies, its generous size complements a variety of interior styles, from traditional to eclectic. As a vintage item, minor signs of wear may be present, reflecting its history and adding to its distinctive charm. The rug has been professionally cleaned and repaired where necessary to maintain its condition.
Selected pieces can be viewed in the intended room so scale, colour and furniture relationships can be judged properly.
