North-west Persian Carpet, Circa 1880, 3.20m X 2.69m

19th century
Sold 2 February 2026 · Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs
This “North-west Persian Carpet, Circa 1880, 3.20m X 2.69m” found a buyer.

It was listed by Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

This delightful small Bakshaish weaving from North-West Persia has a classic medallion design. But the design is somewhat out of character. The large floral anchor medallion is drawn in a very naturalistic manner as are some of the other floral elements, including the botehs in the spandrels and blossoms in the field. However the soft wool quality and wonderful colours which includes a really subtle terracotta and two shades of pale blue are very much in the Bakshaish repertoire. It is a really decorative little carpet which coupled with lovely sapphire blue border and the squarish format makes it a rare treasure. Clean and in very good condition. There are some minor spots of repiling which have been executed very professionally.

Date of Manufacture

Aaron Nejad Carpets and Rugs has dated this Antique Persian Carpet to the 1880s.

North-West Persian carpets from the late 19th century typically feature geometric medallions, stylised floral motifs, and bold angular designs influenced by regional tribal traditions.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for the pile, foundation warps of cotton or wool, and natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and insects.

Authentic pieces exhibit irregularities in knotting and symmetry due to hand production, natural abrash colour variations in the wool, and characteristic wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique carpet can anchor a modern or minimalist living space by adding textural contrast, warmth, and historical depth through its rich palette and intricate patterns.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotary brushes, professional specialist cleaning when necessary, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to prevent dye fading.
