1900's Antique Persian Bibikabad Carpet with Modern Style

About the Item

77575 Antique Persian Bibikabad Rug, 10'08 x 12'08. A captivating orchestration of floral rhythm and age-old craftsmanship, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Bibikabad rug unfolds like a garden eternal—its deep midnight-blue field blooming with the lyrical dance of the Mina Khani pattern. Woven in the storied region of Bibikabad, this majestic carpet evokes a poetic reverence for nature, where stylized rosettes burst like constellations across a velvet sky. Each blossom, encircled by delicate vine tracery and fluttering palmettes, tells a quiet tale of tradition passed through the nimble fingers of village weavers who wove stories into thread. In the language of Persian design, Mina Khani speaks not through grandeur but through grace—its lattice of interconnected florals a metaphor for harmony and continuity. Unlike the medallions that dominate other styles, here the motif floats freely, a constellation of blossoms suspended in motion. Rambling across the field with effortless symmetry, the design captures the essence of garden carpets, yet it is grounded in the rustic sincerity of the Bibikabad aesthetic, where bold composition meets pastoral charm. The richly saturated palette—a chorus of navy blue, brick red, ivory, camel, and deep cerulean- sings in contrast and cohesion. A brilliant red main border, ablaze with floral sprays and serrated leaves, frames the composition with both warmth and clarity. Flanked by scrolling carnation meander guard bands, this enclosure gives structure to the organic unfurling within, echoing the balance between wild nature and human artistry. Every knot of this woolen tapestry holds pigment drawn from the earth itself—madder root, indigo, pomegranate rind—infusing the rug with hues that whisper of soil, sky, and bloom. To walk upon this Bibikabad is to step into a legacy—an immersive narrative of Persian village life and artistic devotion. It is more than textile; it is time woven in form, a soft-spoken heirloom whose beauty deepens with every glance. Ideal for a collector with a romantic eye or a connoisseur of craftsmanship, this piece invites not only admiration but presence—a reminder that art, like flowers in a field, thrives where hands honor heritage. Persian Bibikabad rugs originate from the Bibikabad region in Iran and are renowned for their intricate floral motifs, geometric patterns, and high knot density, showcasing the craftsmanship of skilled artisans. Crafted from durable wool and occasionally featuring silk highlights, these rugs come in various sizes and shapes, from small accent pieces to large area rugs. Their rich color palette, derived from natural dyes, includes deep reds, blues, greens, and golds. With their timeless designs and enduring quality, Persian Bibikabad rugs are highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.​ Rendered in variegated shades of ink blue, brick red, navy blue, terra cotta, sapphire, burnt orange, rust, brown, camel, cerulean, ivory and beige with other accent colors.
