This antique Bakhtiari Kurdish village area rug from West Persia dates to the first quarter of the twentieth century. It displays a Persian tribal style, hand-knotted from lustrous wool pile onto cotton foundations with original side cords and tasselled fringe ends. The design incorporates a cream and pink central floral medallion framed by red and navy blue fields, complemented by complex botanical borders, original selvedges, and an array of ten vibrant colours including yellow and light blue. The rug measures 224 cm high, 160 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, with an even full pile throughout. Suitable for an English country house interior, it provides a warm floor covering underneath living room seating or adds character to a hallway.

FAQs

Bakhtiari rugs are traditional tribal textiles produced in the Chahar Mahal Valley region of West Persia. Woven by settled village artisans and nomadic Bakhtiari tribespeople, these carpets are historically recognized for incorporating both nomadic tribal geometry and structured floral patterns influenced by urban Persian weaving centers.

These carpets are hand-knotted using locally sourced sheeps wool for the pile, secured onto a sturdy cotton or wool warp and weft foundation. Artisans traditionally utilize asymmetric or symmetric knots alongside natural plant-based dyes to create heavy, dense fabrics designed for durability.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-spun wool irregularities, natural colour variation known as abrash, and a dense, heavy structure. Look for traditional design formats such as the central medallion layout or the garden panel layout (Khesti), accompanied by multi-tiered floral borders and a slightly flexible, hand-tied backing.

Place the carpet as an anchoring element in living spaces, dining areas, or studies to contrast modern minimal furniture with historic texture. The multi-coloured palette integrates effectively alongside natural timber flooring, neutral upholstery, and leather seating.

Vacuum regularly without using a rotating beater bar to prevent fiber pulling. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth and mild detergent, rotate the rug annually to ensure even wear, and arrange for professional hand-washing periodically.
