Hamadan Persian Rugs
This exquisite semi antique Hamadan Persian rug at 10'7" x 3'7" showcases the masterful artistry of Persian weavers through its stunning medallion design adorned with intricate Herati motifs. The rich madder red field creates a dramatic foundation for the central toranj medallion, while cream and navy blue elements dance harmoniously throughout the composition. Burgundy and gold accents add depth and sophistication, complemented by ivory, royal blue, rust red, ochre, and black details that create a mesmerizing visual tapestry. This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece transforms any hallway or narrow space into an elegant Persian gallery.
The Hamadan region of Persia has been renowned for centuries as a prolific weaving center, where skilled artisans have passed down their craft through generations in the foothills of the Alvand Mountains. This semi antique piece, aged 40-60 years, carries the authentic character and patina that only time can bestow upon genuine Persian craftsmanship. The weavers of Hamadan are celebrated for their robust construction techniques and bold color palettes, creating rugs that embody both durability and artistic excellence.
The central medallion represents the Persian concept of the garden of paradise, while the surrounding Herati pattern, known as the "fish pattern," symbolizes abundance and protection from the evil eye. Each symmetrical Ghiordes knot was carefully tied by hand, creating the dense pile that gives this rug its remarkable longevity and lustrous appearance. The interplay of warm and cool tones reflects the Persian understanding of color harmony, where madder red speaks of passion and vitality, while navy blue represents wisdom and tranquility.
This distinctive runner size makes it perfect for defining spaces in hallways, kitchen passages, or alongside dining areas where its vibrant colors can create visual continuity. Los Angeles Home of Rugs proudly presents this exceptional piece, knowing that its rich palette will complement both traditional Persian décor and contemporary Western interiors. The natural wool construction ensures lasting beauty, while the cotton foundation provides structural integrity that will serve generations of admiring owners.
