For Sale by Rug Addiction
Description

A lovely antique tribal rug, woven by the nomadic Lors circa 1920. The rug features a geometrical design on a rich terracotta field surrounded by an ivory border. Note the charming way the border design changes from the ends to the sides. A little battered and bruised which is reflected in the price but still a great tribal rug.

This rug has medium, age related wear, very slightly heavier in a couple of places (see photos). Slight losses to fringes and selvedges (see photos). Slight marks to small areas of red (see photos. These imperfections are reflected in the price and it has been professionally cleaned.

Archival Detail
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.
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.
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.

Lori rugs originate from the Lur tribe of western Iran, recognised for bold geometric patterns, deep colour palettes, and stylized central pole medallions.

Hand-spun sheep wool is traditionally used for both pile and foundation, dyed using natural plant and mineral sources to produce rich reds, blues, and cream tones.

Authentic pieces feature a wool warp and weft structure, a soft and pliable feel, stepped geometric medallion motifs, and subtle weaver variations in symmetry.

Position the rug over hardwood flooring or layer it over neutral flatweave matting to anchor a seating group while adding texture and historic interest.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to equalize wear, and rely on professional wool-safe cleaning methods when required.
