Bakhtiari Persian Rugs
This magnificent semi antique Bakhtiari Persian rug at 12'6" x 10'4" presents a stunning Kheshti garden design that transforms any grand living space into a sanctuary of Persian elegance. The masterful composition features intricate geometric compartments in rich madder red, navy blue, and crimson, each cell containing delicate floral motifs that speak to centuries of weaving tradition in the Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari provinces.
Woven 40 to 60 years ago in the rugged highlands of southwestern Persia, this Bakhtiari exemplifies the nomadic heritage of the Bakhtiari tribes who created these masterpieces during their seasonal migrations. The Kheshti or garden design represents the Persian concept of paradise, with each geometric compartment symbolizing a garden plot filled with eternal blooms. The symmetrical Ghiordes knotting technique, passed down through generations of tribal weavers, ensures exceptional durability and the distinctive texture that makes these rugs treasured worldwide.
The sophisticated color palette combines traditional madder red and navy blue with accents of cream, ivory, dark red, burgundy, white, brown, and black, creating a harmonious symphony that anchors large dining rooms or family spaces with timeless sophistication. Each shade carries deep cultural meaning - the madder red symbolizing joy and celebration, while the navy blue represents the infinite sky above the Persian highlands. This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece elevates any interior with its museum-quality craftsmanship and authentic tribal character.
Perfect for spacious homes seeking a statement piece, this Bakhtiari rug from Los Angeles Home of Rugs brings the warmth of Persian hospitality to contemporary living spaces. The natural wool construction with cotton foundation provides both comfort underfoot and lasting beauty, while the protective fringes complete this authentic representation of one of Persia's most celebrated weaving traditions.
