About the Item

This hand-woven oriental Hamadan rug was made in Iran during the 1960s. It is flat woven carpet - woven using traditional technique. This rug is dyed in shades of rustic red, pink and purple with a strongly accentuated, single medallion, placed in the central part of the rug. It is hand-made, where every detail is thought out and refined. This Hamadan hand knotted oriental rug was made in Iran during the 1960s. Traditionally flatwoven, and dyed in shades of rustic red and indigo blue. Hamadan rugs are traditionally hand-knotted rugs from the Hamadan region in western Iran. This region is one of the oldest centers of rug weaving in the world and includes many villages and towns, each with its own unique patterns and styles. The different types of rugs made in Iran are most often named after the regions and towns where they are produced, such as Hamadan, Kerman, or Shiraz, or after the nomadic tribes that produce them. They most often feature central medallions, geometric motifs, and floral motifs. These patterns are usually symmetrical. Some elements are more abstract, while others are inspired by traditional Persian motifs. Typical colors used in Hamadan rugs include reds, navy blues, shades of blue, brown, beige, and ivory. The colours are usually vivid and intense, obtained from natural plant and mineral dyes. The rugs are hand-woven from wool, often on a cotton warp, which makes them durable and resistant to wear. These rugs usually have a medium knot density, which gives them a solid structure. The asymmetric Persian knot is often used, which allows for greater precision and detail in the pattern. Hamadan rugs combine traditional craftsmanship with functionality, being both a beautiful decorative element and a practical addition to the interior. They are evidence of the rich history and culture of the region from which they come. Hamadan rugs are popular both locally and internationally, appreciated for their durability, aesthetics and variety of designs. The traditional art of weaving Persian rugs is a national cultural heritage of Iran. In 2010, the art of weaving rugs from Fars and Kashan were added to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List. They are often chosen for both traditional and modern interiors. The rug is in original vintage condition. It has signs of wear due to age, fabric loss, abrasions and damage to the fleece. The rug will be professionally cleaned and ready for use before shipping.
