This antique Hamadan rug originates from the 1920s in a Persian style, composed of wool and cotton materials with a hand-knotted construction. The pile displays a repeating geometric floral lattice pattern set against a dark navy field, which is enclosed by a multi-tiered terracotta red and blue border with alternating motifs. Secondary colours include cream, pink, and soft blue tones across the field and borders, complemented by short fringed ends and finished edges along the perimeter. The piece exhibits light, age-related wear across the surface, whilst the fringes and selvedges remain secure following professional cleaning. Measuring 196 cm high, 143 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, the carpet suits placement on floors within living spaces, studies, or hallways of an English Country House setting to provide underfoot warmth and traditional textile decoration.

FAQs

Hamadan rugs originate from one of the oldest cities in Iran and its surrounding weaving villages, known for producing durable, hand-knotted floor coverings featuring geometric patterns and rich dye tones.

These rugs are typically crafted with a hand-spun wool pile woven onto a sturdy cotton warp and weft structure, providing resistance to heavy foot traffic.

Authentic examples generally feature single-weft construction, a firm wool pile, geometric or repeating lattice motifs, and subtle colour variations known as abrash.

Position the rug over neutral hardwood or stone flooring to allow the rich tones and geometric pattern to ground a contemporary living space, study, or hallway.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug periodically for balanced wear, and employ professional carpet conservators for deep cleaning.
