Discover the charm of a Vintage Bakhtiari Tribal Rug, expertly hand-knotted by Bakhtiari artisans from Southeast Iran in the 1970s. Measuring 2.2 by 1.4 metres, this medium-sized rug is crafted with fine local wool piled over a durable cotton foundation, showcasing authentic Persian craftsmanship.
The rug features a distinctive tribal design centred around three diamond medallions interspersed with floral motifs, creating a botanical theme that brings natural elegance to any space. The decorative borders frame the design, enhancing its traditional appeal. Its rich colour palette combines rustic reds and deep greens, balanced with cream highlights, all achieved through natural, organic dyes.
Natural colour variations known as “Abrash” add subtle tonal stripes, reflecting the handmade process and the use of different wool and dye batches. This contributes to the rug’s unique character and depth. Despite its vintage status, the rug remains in great condition with minor signs of wear that add to its authenticity and history.
Ideal for living rooms or other medium-sized areas, this thick and solid rug brings warmth and style while supporting sustainable practices through its organic materials and natural dyeing methods. Each rug is carefully cleaned and repaired to ensure durability.
Selected pieces can be viewed in the intended room so scale, colour and furniture relationships can be judged properly.
