This vintage Bakhtiari rug from Iran, dating back to the 1970s, exemplifies traditional Persian craftsmanship. Measuring 2 by 1.4 metres, it features the classic Gole-Farang or “Foreign Flower” motif, with a central medallion surrounded by floral patterns. The deep navy background provides a striking contrast to the salmon, olive green, blue, and yellow accents woven throughout the design.
Hand-knotted with hand-spun wool and coloured using natural vegetable dyes, this rug captures the authentic texture and vibrant hues characteristic of Bakhtiari weaving. Its cotton foundation supports the wool pile, ensuring durability while maintaining a refined finish. The rug is in excellent condition, reflecting careful restoration and preservation efforts.
Ideal for adding a touch of heritage and artistry to living spaces, this piece suits both collectors and those seeking a distinctive decorative floor covering. Its medium size makes it versatile for various room settings, from lounges to bedrooms. As a collectible, it carries the unique variations in weave and colour typical of vintage rugs, which enhance its character and historical value.
