Early 20th Century Persian Lilihan Rug
About the Item
Woven in the 1930s, this early 20th-century Persian Lilihan rug is a vibrant example of village craftsmanship from western Iran. Its central field features a mirrored floral pattern—stylized blossoms, scrolling vines, and leafy tendrils arranged in a beautifully balanced composition. A complex border frames the field, composed of multiple slender bands, each woven with petite floral motifs that echo the lushness of the interior design. The palette is unmistakably Lilihan: warm cranberry, bright orange, golden ochre, soft pink, and varying shades of indigo, lending the rug both boldness and charm. Lilihan rugs are hand-knotted in the Armenian villages near Arak in the Hamadan region, where weavers blend Persian design sensibilities with regional aesthetics. Known for their sturdy construction and spirited patterns, Lilihan rugs are beloved for their warmth, durability, and expressive color stories—making them ideal for adding depth and character to hallways, studies, or any well-lived space.
