Bakhtiari Persian Rugs
This magnificent 10'3" x 6'12" semi antique Bakhtiari Persian rug showcases the timeless artistry of Persia's Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, where master weavers have perfected their craft for centuries. The rich madder red field creates a dramatic foundation, beautifully complemented by crimson, cream, and navy blue accents that dance across the intricate medallion design. Dating back 40-60 years, this exceptional piece carries the patina and character that only authentic Persian rugs can possess.
The nomadic Bakhtiari tribes of western Persia have long been celebrated for their bold geometric patterns and superior wool quality, traditions that shine brilliantly in this remarkable example. The central medallion, known as Toranj in Persian, represents the cosmic order and eternal harmony, while the surrounding diamond lattice motifs reflect the mathematical precision that defines Bakhtiari design philosophy. These symbolic elements, rendered in ivory, dark red, black, rust red, beige, and brown, create a mesmerizing interplay of color and form that has captivated collectors for generations.
Hand-knotted using the symmetrical Ghiordes technique on cotton foundations, this one-of-a-kind masterpiece elevates any living space with its authentic Persian heritage and exceptional craftsmanship. The natural wool pile, sourced from highland sheep, provides both durability and the lustrous finish that Bakhtiari rugs are renowned for throughout the world. Los Angeles Home of Rugs takes pride in offering such extraordinary examples of Persian weaving artistry to discerning collectors.
Perfect for medium to large living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms, this 10'3" x 6'12" foot size creates an ideal focal point without overwhelming the space. The warm red tones beautifully complement both traditional and contemporary furniture, while the geometric patterns add sophisticated visual interest to any interior design scheme. The natural aging process has enhanced the colors' depth and richness, creating subtle variations that bring life and character to every thread.
