This Persian tribal area rug originates from the Fars province in South West Persia and dates from the last quarter of the nineteenth century, produced by the Arab-Jabbareh tribe. The all-woollen construction employs natural dyes, presenting a deep indigo blue field combined with six alternating coloured lozenges. The textile displays visible wear including an even pile throughout and secured ends, alongside light brown dyed weft threads. The design incorporates repeating geometric diamond medallions, latch-hook borders, and numerous stylized bird and animal motifs, including pecking chickens set against the patterned background. The colour palette encompasses rich red and indigo blue tones alongside multi-coloured accents. The piece measures 186 cm high by 150 cm wide with a 1 cm depth, providing a substantial area covering for interior spaces. This antique rug suits placement on wooden or carpeted flooring within an English Country House setting, functioning effectively as a central floor covering in a living room, study, or hallway to add traditional warmth and texture to the interior decoration.

FAQs

Khamseh rugs are hand-knotted tribal carpets woven by the nomadic Khamseh Confederation in South West Persia. They are recognized for their bold geometric patterns, diamond-shaped medallions, and stylized bird or animal motifs.

These rugs are crafted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the underlying foundation (warp and weft). The yarns are dyed using natural vegetable and mineral dyes, producing deep indigo blues, terracotta reds, and ivory accents.

Authentic pieces feature a flexible wool warp and weft, slight weave variations typical of nomadic tribal looms, geometric field motifs, and natural colour variations known as abrash.

A tribal rug introduces rich colour and historic texture to modern spaces. It works effectively under streamlined furniture to create visual contrast, or within traditional schemes alongside polished timber and leather.

Vacuum regularly on a low setting using a suction-only nozzle without a rotating brush. Rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear, and place a quality underlay beneath it to protect the wool foundation.
