About the Item

This exceptional vintage Persian Khamseh rug from the 1880s is a testament to the masterful artistry of tribal weaving. Its captivating design features a series of large, interconnected hexagonal medallions, each filled with a rich tapestry of intricate motifs. The dark blue and deep terracotta-colored panels are adorned with stylized birds, animals, and geometric symbols, creating a dynamic and engaging visual story. The rug's main border provides a perfect frame, with repeating geometric motifs in muted tones that complement the vivid central field. Woven entirely from wool, the rug has a soft, yet durable texture that feels wonderful underfoot. Having been recently restored to a good vintage condition, this piece retains all of its historical charm while being ready for modern use. This rug would be a breathtaking addition to a traditional or eclectic interior, offering both warmth and a profound sense of history.
