Hamadan Persian Rugs
This exquisite semi antique Hamadan Persian rug measuring 10'4" x 3'5" presents a magnificent medallion (Toranj) surrounded by the timeless Herati (Mahi) pattern, creating a masterful composition that speaks to centuries of Persian weaving artistry. The rich madder red field provides a luxurious backdrop for the intricate navy blue and crimson central medallion, while delicate ivory and cream accents dance throughout the design, creating visual depth and sophistication.
From the ancient city of Hamadan in western Persia, this rug carries forward the legacy of master weavers who have perfected their craft over generations in the Zagros Mountains region. Hamadan has been renowned since antiquity for producing rugs of exceptional durability and distinctive geometric precision, with local artisans drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of their mountainous homeland and the rich cultural heritage of ancient Media.
The medallion design represents the cosmic center and eternal unity in Persian symbolism, while the surrounding Herati pattern, known as the "fish pattern," symbolizes abundance and protection from evil. The harmonious blend of deep indigo, royal blue, and brick red creates a palette that reflects both the earth and sky, embodying the Persian belief in balance between earthly and celestial realms.
This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece, with its distinctive runner proportions, transforms hallways, entryways, or kitchen spaces into galleries of Persian artistry, elevating the entire atmosphere with its semi antique character and timeless appeal. At 40-60 years old, this rug has achieved the perfect patina that only comes with age, softening the colors into a harmonious symphony while maintaining the structural integrity that makes Hamadan rugs treasured heirlooms.
Los Angeles Home of Rugs presents this exceptional piece as part of their curated collection, where each rug tells a unique story of Persian craftsmanship and cultural heritage that continues to captivate collectors and interior designers worldwide.
