Vintage Handmade Persian Floor Rug Hosseinabad Red Blue Medallion Wool 1990s

About the Item

This handmade wool rug from Hosseinabad, Iran, features an intricate Herati design in deep shades of red and blue. The Herati design is a traditional Persian pattern, believed to be based on older Farahan designs typical of the region. The wool has been naturally washed and dried for a minimum of three months, creating a durability and warmth only found in authentic Persian rugs –– making it a perfect central addition to any room in the house either with midcentury interiors or modern. Would look great under a dining table or a coffee table. The village of Hosseinabad is located to the north west of Iran, some 300km from Tehran, and is part of a region famed for their rug-making. Each village has its own style of rug, and as such no two are particularly alike, varying in pattern and colours.

Vintage Berber 1970s Geometrical Rug Handmade Wool Boho North African Ethnic XXL
Located in London, GB
A very large Algerian Berber rug with many different colorful patterns, such as arrows, diamonds, triangles, and more, stacked and organized in horizontal lines on a white/beige base, is a stunning work of art that is characterised by its standout colors of pink fuchsia and blue red purple palette. The different shapes on the rug's patterns hold cultural and historical significance, and the use of these standout colors adds an extra layer of meaning to the design. For instance, pink fuchsia is often associated with love and femininity, while blue red purple is often associated with royalty and spirituality. The combination of these colors and the different shapes on the rug's patterns reflect the Berber people's cultural and religious beliefs, as well as their skilled craftsmanship. The use of the white/beige base creates a neutral and versatile backdrop, allowing the vibrant colors and patterns to stand out even more. This rug's large size makes it a perfect centrepiece for a living room, dining room, or bedroom, adding warmth and character to any space.. This rug is handwoven using traditional techniques by Berber tribes in Algeria, and the use of high-quality natural materials such as wool and cotton ensures its durability and longevity. From a cultural and historical perspective, this rug is unique as it is a product of the Berber people's long-standing tradition of weaving, which dates back centuries. The Berbers are indigenous people of North Africa, and their weaving traditions have been passed down through generations, preserving their cultural heritage. Unlike other Berber rugs that originate from neighbouring touristic countries and anyone could grab a rug, Algeria is not a touristic destination and therefore extremely difficult to find these rugs outside the country. We have a large collection of Algerian Berber Amazigh rugs...
