This antique Persian Jozan rug dates to circa 1900 and exemplifies traditional West Persian village weaving. The hand-knotted wool pile displays a deep indigo navy blue field densely populated with flowing floral branches, stylised vines, and delicate blossoms, centred on a vibrant terracotta-and-rust diamond medallion with a floral starburst core. Matching geometric corner spandrels and a multi-layered border with a cream-coloured main band of repeating rosettes frame the composition, showing visible repairs and tinting from age and past use. Measuring 206 cm x 138 cm, the rug suits placement as a floor covering in a living room, study, or hallway within an English Country House interior. The durable wool construction provides a practical textile surface underfoot while bringing traditional Persian motifs and strong colour contrast to domestic spaces.

FAQs

Originating from the Malayer region in western Iran, Jozan rugs are closely related to Sarouk weaving traditions. They typically feature fine hand-knotting, high-grade wool, a deep navy or red field, and intricate central floral medallions framed by structured spandrels and floral borders.

These rugs were hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. Natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and minerals provided deep tones such as indigo blue, madder red, and muted ivory.

Authentic pieces display slight asymmetrical variations in the hand-woven knotting, natural colour abrash or shading, and a soft, flexible reverse side showing clear foundation threads. The weave density is consistently fine, with the back mirroring the front pattern.

An antique Persian rug serves as a grounding focal point in contemporary or classic spaces, anchoring minimalist furniture or traditional wooden seating. The dark navy and terracotta red palette creates a balanced contrast against light neutral flooring and clean architectural lines.

Vacuum regularly on a low setting without a rotating brush bar to prevent fibre damage, and rotate the rug annually to balance light exposure and tread wear. Promptly blot liquid spills with a clean dry cloth, and seek specialist professional cleaning when deeper maintenance is required.
