Bakhtiari Persian Rugs
This exquisite semi antique Bakhtiari Persian rug, measuring 8'10" x 5'4", showcases the masterful artistry of Persian weavers through its intricate Afshan all-over pattern complemented by traditional Herati motifs. The rich madder red foundation harmoniously blends with rust red accents, while cream medallions and navy blue geometric elements create a sophisticated diamond lattice composition that speaks to decades of refinement and cultural heritage.
The Bakhtiari weavers of the Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari provinces have long been celebrated for their exceptional craftsmanship, with this particular piece representing 40 to 60 years of graceful aging that has deepened its natural wool luster. The nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes of this mountainous region developed their distinctive weaving traditions along ancient trade routes, incorporating both geometric precision and organic flowing patterns that reflect their connection to Persia's pastoral landscapes.
The Afshan design, meaning "scattered" in Persian, creates an enchanting visual rhythm across the rug's surface, where diamond-shaped compartments house delicate Herati fish motifs surrounded by intricate botanical elements. The interplay of dark red and brown border elements frames ivory and blue accent details, while subtle green touches add depth and sophistication to this time-honored composition that has captivated collectors for generations.
This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece elevates any living space with its perfect balance of warmth and elegance, making it ideal for medium-sized rooms where its 8'10" x 5'4" foot dimensions can serve as either a stunning centerpiece or sophisticated accent piece. The symmetrical Ghiordes knots ensure lasting durability, while the natural wool and cotton construction provides both comfort underfoot and resistance to daily wear.
Los Angeles Home of Rugs proudly presents this authentic Bakhtiari treasure, where the convergence of madder red richness, cream luminosity, and navy blue depth creates an heirloom-quality piece that bridges traditional Persian artistry with contemporary interior design sensibilities, transforming any space into a refined sanctuary of cultural appreciation and timeless beauty.
