Shahsavan Rug

1900 - 1920
Description

I love a rug with an infinite field such as this. The mutli-coloured stepped diamonds are locked together and create a mesmerising field that is cut off by the border. The weave is crude but tough and similar to Jaf Kurdish rugs albeit without their trademark offset knotting. The vegetable dyes are bright and combine beautifully, it is interesting to see how the white in the main field causes the three diamonds towards the bottom to pop out and attract the eye to them. Despite some wear this is a very strong and usable piece.

A couple of areas of wear, the main one across the middle. Some small areas of repair but as stated this is a very tough rug.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Shahsavan rugs are traditional handwoven textiles created by the nomadic Shahsavan tribal confederation originating from northwestern Iran and the Caucasus region, recognised for bold geometric patterns and vibrant dyes.

These rugs are constructed using locally sourced hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces feature geometric lozenge or medallion designs, multi-bordered edges, natural colour variations known as abrash, and a flexible wool warp and weft construction.

A Shahsavan runner works exceptionally well in hallways, entryways, or along the foot of a bed, adding historic texture and grounding minimal or eclectic interior schemes.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear, use a quality underlay, and seek professional specialist cleaning for stains.
