Hamadan Rug

1920 - 1940
Description

A larger than average Hamadan rug with a decorative allover design. It seems that these rugs with a repeated allover design are in vogue in comparison to the typical oriental rug with central medallions, certainly the larger Heriz carpets with this design outperform the medallion examples.

These cotton foundation rugs lie flat and are hard wearing. The central field is covered in stylised flowers and serrated leaves arranged in a complex lattice that slips under the four pink spandrels. This is an attractive rug which could be used in any setting.

Good condition.

Date of Manufacture

Phil Bell Antique Rugs has dated this Antique Persian Hamadan Rug to the 1930s.

This Hamadan rug, dating to 1930, is a traditional Persian floor covering constructed from wool on a cotton foundation. The piece measures 202 cm high and 152 cm wide. The design presents a navy blue field filled with geometric repeats, stylised flowers, and serrated leaves in shades of red, blue, and cream, arranged in a complex lattice pattern. This central field is framed by terracotta spandrels at the corners and a detailed multi-band border incorporating repeating motifs in navy blue, red, and ivory. Suitable for use in any domestic setting today, this hard-wearing rug lies flat and brings traditional style to an interior. The visible palette includes navy blue, terracotta, cream, and soft red tones, creating a richly patterned surface with classic Persian motifs. The construction displays a dense hand-knotted pile with clear geometric organisation across the field and borders, offering a durable textile option for various room placements.

Hamadan rugs originate from the historic city of Hamadan in western Iran and its surrounding weaving villages, known for producing durable hand-knotted textiles with varied geometric and floral designs.

These rugs are typically hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton warp foundation, utilising natural dyes derived from plants and minerals.

Authentic pieces usually feature a single-weft construction, symmetrical or Turkish knots, thick wool pile, and geometric medallion designs framed by distinct decorative borders.

A Hamadan rug provides visual warmth and texture when positioned beneath clean-lined contemporary furniture, anchoring living rooms, dining areas, or study spaces.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug annually to balance wear and light exposure, and rely on professional cleaning using mild wool-safe solutions.
