Boteh Persian Rugs
This remarkable semi antique Boteh Persian rug, measuring 10'6" x 6'11", showcases the timeless elegance of traditional Persian craftsmanship through its stunning Vaghireh banded design interwoven with classic Herati motifs. The rich madder red field provides a warm foundation that beautifully complements the intricate cream and navy blue geometric patterns, while touches of dark red, ivory, blue, and green create a sophisticated color palette that speaks to centuries of Persian artistic tradition.
The Boteh collection originates from the historic weaving centers of Arak province in central Persia, where master weavers have perfected the art of creating these distinctive paisley-inspired designs for generations. The term "ÈÊå" (Boteh) refers to the teardrop or paisley motif that has been a cornerstone of Persian textile art since ancient times, symbolizing life, fertility, and eternal growth. This particular example features the coveted Vaghireh pattern, characterized by its rhythmic banded structure that creates visual movement across the field, while the Herati border design adds classical Persian refinement with its fish and diamond motifs.
At 40 to 60 years of age, this semi antique piece has developed the perfect patina that only comes with time and careful use, softening the original colors into harmonious tones while maintaining the structural integrity that makes it a lasting investment. The asymmetrical Persian knots, hand-tied with 100% natural wool pile on a cotton foundation, create the dense, resilient surface that has made Persian rugs legendary for their durability and beauty. This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece transforms any living space into a gallery of Persian artistry, elevating both traditional and contemporary interiors with its sophisticated presence.
The 10'6" x 6'11" dimensions make this rug ideal for anchoring a dining room, creating a cozy reading area, or defining a conversation space in a larger living room. Los Angeles Home of Rugs is proud to offer this authentic piece that represents the pinnacle of Persian weaving tradition. The madder red base with its cream geometric bands creates an inviting warmth that pairs beautifully with rich wood furniture, while the navy blue accents provide the perfect counterpoint to both warm and cool color schemes, making this versatile treasure suitable for any discerning collector's home.
