Hamadan Persian Rugs
This magnificent semi antique Hamadan Persian rug at 10'4" x 7'1" showcases the timeless artistry of Persia's most celebrated weaving tradition, featuring a spectacular medallion (Toranj) design surrounded by intricate Herati (Mahi) motifs in a rich palette of red, navy blue, cream, burgundy, and gold accents. The substantial size makes this piece ideal for anchoring a formal living room, dining area, or master bedroom, while the 40-60 year patina adds character and depth that only comes with age and careful preservation.
The ancient city of Hamadan, known as Ecbatana in classical antiquity, has been the heart of Persian rug weaving for over two millennia, where master weavers have passed down their techniques through generations in the shadow of the Zagros Mountains. This region's weavers are renowned for their bold use of color and geometric precision, creating rugs that balance traditional Persian motifs with the distinctive village character that makes each Hamadan unique and instantly recognizable among collectors worldwide.
The central medallion represents the cosmic dome of heaven in Persian symbolism, while the surrounding Herati pattern-featuring fish swimming around diamond shapes-symbolizes abundance and protection from the evil eye. The deep red field evokes the warmth of Persian hospitality, complemented by navy blue borders that represent wisdom and stability, while cream and gold highlights add luminosity and richness that will enhance any interior color scheme with sophisticated elegance.
As a one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece using symmetrical Ghiordes knots, this semi antique treasure elevates any space with its authentic Persian heritage and exceptional craftsmanship that cannot be replicated by machine production. Los Angeles Home of Rugs proudly presents this extraordinary example of Hamadan weaving, where the natural wool and cotton foundation creates a durable yet luxurious floor covering that will be treasured for generations while maintaining its beauty and structural integrity through decades of use.
