Hamadan Persian Rugs
This magnificent semi antique Hamadan Persian rug, measuring 10'1" x 7'10", presents a captivating medallion (Toranj) design surrounded by intricate Herati (Mahi) patterns that have graced Persian homes for centuries. The rich madder red field creates a warm foundation, beautifully complemented by cream, navy blue, and burgundy accents that dance throughout the composition. At 40-60 years old, this semi antique masterpiece has developed the perfect patina that only time can bestow upon authentic Persian craftsmanship.
The ancient city of Hamadan, nestled in the Zagros Mountains of western Persia, has been renowned for its exceptional carpet weaving since the Medieval period. This region's weavers have perfected the art of creating durable, symmetrically knotted rugs using the finest local wool, passed down through generations of master artisans. The Herati pattern, also known as the fish motif, represents abundance and prosperity, while the central medallion symbolizes the cosmos and eternal harmony.
The sophisticated color palette of this Hamadan rug showcases the traditional Persian dyeing techniques, with the deep madder red derived from the roots of the madder plant, creating an enduring richness that ivory and beige borders elegantly frame. Dark red and burgundy details add depth and complexity to the overall design, while navy blue elements provide striking contrast. This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted treasure elevates any living space with its authentic Persian character and timeless elegance.
Perfect for a spacious living room, dining area, or master bedroom, this 10'1" x 7'10" foot Persian rug anchors furniture beautifully while allowing the intricate patterns to be fully appreciated. Los Angeles Home of Rugs proudly presents this exceptional Hamadan piece, complete with natural cotton foundation and traditional fringe detailing that speaks to its authentic Persian heritage and superior craftsmanship.
