This antique Persian Isfahan rug dates from around 1900 and displays a classic pictorial tree of life design. The wool and cotton textile is finely knotted on an ivory ground with branching foliage, perched birds, and a central tree motif, all framed by a terracotta floral border. The colour palette includes shades of beige, terracotta, brown, and pale blue, showing an even low pile with light wear and corrosion across the surface. The piece measures 199 cm high, 137 cm wide, and 0.5 cm deep. In a contemporary interior, the textile provides a decorative floor covering for a living room, study, or hallway, bringing traditional craftsmanship and warm tones to an English country house setting.

FAQs

Isfahan rugs are hand-knotted Persian carpets originating from the city of Isfahan in central Iran. Historically renowned for high knot density and intricate compositions, these carpets frequently feature medallion designs, intricate spiralling vines, and detailed pictorial Tree of Life motifs.

Traditional Isfahan carpets are constructed using natural wool or silk pile spun onto a cotton or silk foundation warp and weft. Dyes are historically derived from natural plant and mineral sources to produce rich terracotta, indigo blue, and ivory tones.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical Senneh knots with high knot density, visible on the underside as tight, clear patterning. Look for hand-bound sides, natural colour variation known as abrash, and slight asymmetry in the motif execution characteristic of manual weaving.

Place the rug as a focal element in a sitting room or hallway to anchor contemporary minimalist furniture, or layer it over plain natural fibre matting. The muted terracotta and beige palette complements neutral timber flooring and dark wood furniture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush to prevent fibre damage. Rotate the rug annually to balance sun exposure and tread wear, and clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth and cold water.
