Large Square Persian Bakshaish Rug

About the Item

Rare large square size Persian antique Persian Bakshaish with a light blue field, accents in pink, apricot, terracotta, and blue Measures: 14'2" x 15', circa 1910 The best antique rugs and carpets utilizing undyed camel hair are quite rare, as they represent a limited production of just a handful of the rug weaving villages and tribal encampments of the mountainous district of Northwest Persia. Prized camelhair yarn, often spun from the wool of the weaver's own camels yields an exceptionally soft and glowing earth tone, and like top quality sheep's wool, it is very strong and resilient to wear. Color striations, known as abrash, yield a surprisingly wide range of earth tone hues from blonde to wheat to walnut and even chocolate brown, greatly enhancing the aesthetic of this style of weaving.

Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug
Located in New York, NY
An early 20th century Persian Bakshaish Rug containing a spiraling all-over design on an orange-colored ground with stunning predominant blue and camel accents. 7'9'' x 9'8'' Bakshaish weavers employed both soft orange and soft blue accents for the base color of the field, with the use of ivory or camelhair grouns being particularly rare and beloved. Exceptional blues are a hallmark of these antique Bakshaish rugs with this being a fine example. Muted salmons, rich corals, greens and yellow accents can also be found e. Antique Bakshaish carpets have a structure similar to others of the Heriz group, although their weave is usually somewhat finer and patterns are more tribal. There are no so many authentic Bakshaishs around today as they are one of the more sought after decorative and collectible persian rugs.
