About the Item
79147 Antique Persian Bakhtiari Rug, 10'05 x 13'00. This hand-knotted wool antique Persian Bakhtiari rug radiates timeless beauty and artistry, epitomizing the rich cultural heritage of the Bakhtiari tribes. The centerpiece of the composition is a striking concentric medallion, elegantly anchored with trefoil pendants at either end. This medallion commands attention with its intricate detail and symmetry, drawing the eye to its harmonious interplay of floral and geometric motifs. The central medallion serves as a unifying element amidst the lively patterns, a hallmark of Bakhtiari craftsmanship.
The vibrant red field is alive with an allover pattern of stylized florals and foliage, creating a dynamic visual dance that captures the imagination. Each motif is meticulously rendered, appearing almost as if it were in motion. Surrounding this central drama, the corner spandrels in a rich blue hue are adorned with intricate botanical elements, adding balance and depth to the overall design. The interplay of red and blue creates a vibrant contrast, a testament to the weaver's mastery of color.
Framing this artistic tableau is an ivory border that exudes an air of refinement and sophistication. The border is intricately adorned with cypress tress, weeping willows, and floral motifs, creating a sense of continuity and rhythm. Flanking the main border are double inner and outer floral meander guard bands, each echoing the central themes of nature and growth. These borders not only enclose the design but also enhance its visual impact, creating a sense of completeness and harmony.
This antique Bakhtiari rug is more than a decorative piece; it is a window into the traditions and artistry of its makers. The careful craftsmanship, from the medallion to the intricate borders, reflects the weaver's dedication and skill. Perfectly suited for both traditional and contemporary spaces, this woven wonder invites admiration and evokes a sense of history and elegance. It stands as a timeless treasure, celebrating the enduring legacy of Persian weaving traditions.

Antique Large Persian Heriz Carpet, Early 20th Century
Heriz rugs and carpets were woven in Northwest Persia starting in the Mid-19th Century in response to a great increase in demand for rugs internationally. Prior to that, there were no rugs woven (in Persia) for export that exhibited this stylized drawing of plant and flower forms. The lower knot density and thicker pile became the standard for these rugs, which lent to a less formal aesthetic that remains popular to this day. The use of natural dyes in the Heriz workshops prevailed well into the 20th century, setting them apart from city workshops, which began to embrace synthetic dyes as early as the turn of the century. What was once one of the least expensive...
