Eliko Rugs by David Ariel Antique Persian Bakhtiari Rug with Warm TOnes
Located in New York, NY
Bakhtiari rugs, also known as Bakhtiar rugs or Bakhtiari carpets, are a type of Persian rug that originated in the Bakhtiari tribe's region in southwestern Iran. The Bakhtiari people are one of the largest Iranian tribal groups and are renowned for their weaving traditions .Bakhtiari rugs are handwoven using a symmetrical knotting technique, known as the Persian knot or Senneh knot, on a foundation of cotton or wool. These rugs typically feature a thick, durable pile made of high-quality wool, which contributes to their longevity and durability. One distinctive characteristic of Bakhtiari rugs is their "garden" or "paradise" design. These rugs are divided into different compartments or panels, each featuring a unique pattern. These panels are often surrounded by a border that frames the overall design.
Bakhtiari rugs are highly regarded for their craftsmanship and artistic value. They are prized by collectors and rug enthusiasts worldwide for their beauty, quality, and cultural significance. Their intricate patterns and vibrant colors make them a popular choice for interior decoration, adding warmth and elegance to any space.

Afshar rugs are a type of handwoven carpet traditionally produced by the Afshar tribe in Iran. The Afshar people are a semi-nomadic group primarily located in the southeastern region of Iran, known as Kerman Province.

Authentic Antique and Vintage Persian Tribal Rugs for Sale on 1stDibs
Make a bold statement in a living room or bedroom by incorporating vintage Persian tribal rugs in your home decor.
The fascination with Persian rugs dates at least as far back as the 4th century B.C., when historian Xenophon referred to the “soft rugs on which the Persians sit.” For centuries, Iran (modern-day Persia) has been known for the craftsmanship, intricate patterns and artistry of its carpets, which have found their way into households and museums around the world.
Although they have many imitators, real Persian rugs are made only in Iran and are easily recognized by their vibrant colors and elegant patterns.
Traditional, or antique, Persian rugs are what most people identify as “authentic.” Hand-made, they are very durable and, if properly cared for, can be passed down from generation to generation. Modern Persians, on the other hand, are often machine-made. Although this production process is much faster and cheaper, the resulting rugs typically do not have the same quality or lifespan as handwoven ones, so traditional options are considered better investments. Today’s carpets, Iranian or otherwise, can’t possibly match the level of craftsmanship that prevailed centuries ago, so historical Persian carpets will always be admired and highly valued.
To distinguish between the two, look for imperfections. Because traditional Persian rugs are handwoven, you will likely see small flaws on the front and back. With a machine-made imitation, on the other hand, you will probably not find stitching glitches, and the back will have a mesh or plastic covering.
Antique rugs are handmade from the finest materials, including wool, silk or cotton — never synthetic fibers. The fibers used in antique rugs are colored using natural dyes derived from insects and plants and woven into bold designs that reflect Iran’s culture and history. Since Persian tribes traditionally raised and herded sheep, wool was the most common material. The fiber has many advantages: It is fire-resistant and dries much more quickly than cotton. Also, because of its natural elasticity, it is more durable than cotton or silk. Regarded as works of art, Persian rugs can take months or years to complete.
When shopping for vintage Persian rugs, you'll want to consider color, size and more — for a history of these rugs and tips on how to style yours, visit our guide to these woven creations today.
