About the Item

Beautifully Artistic and Rustic Antique Persian Bakhtiari Runner Rug, Country Of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1920 – The long, elegant rectangular center field of this highly detailed antique Persian Bakhtiari rug creates a quite orderly carpet design that exhibits rows of stylized and meticulously rendered paisley design motifs. Antique rugs that are tribal and this artistic are extremely rare and truly special Persian area rugs. The rich, opulent dramatic color hues in the field are contrasted by the bright creamy white background of the border. The contrast between the field and border is softened and bridged through the colors in the tribal motifs that line the border. This play of contrast and cohesiveness is so captivating and exciting that is speaks volumes about the high level of skill and artistic abilities that the Persian rug weaver had. Antique Persian rugs as enchanting as this rug from Bakhtiari are extremely rare and considered to be some of the most beautiful tribal rugs in the world. The field of this magnificent tribal Persian Bakhtiari runner rug is jammed packed with rows upon rows of the iconic and historical paisley design motif. But the use of more grounding colors offsets the amount of pattern and give this truly spectacular hallway runner rug a more unform look and feel that is not busy at all.
