This Persian Veramin rug dates from the 1930 period and displays a hand-knotted wool construction on a cotton foundation. The central field presents a mid-blue ground patterned with a repeating Mina Khani lattice of floral rosettes in red, ivory, and dark tones. A wide red multi-band border frames the field, populated with botanical motifs and flanked by narrow guard stripes. Short white fringed ends finish the top and bottom edges of the textile. Measuring 220 cm high by 148 cm wide with a 1 cm depth, the piece brings traditional pattern and texture to floor spaces throughout the home. Suitable for placement in a hallway, living room, or study, the rug introduces rich colour and historic character to interior schemes. The composition relies on balanced geometry and dense botanical detailing to anchor furniture groupings or stand alone on bare timber or stone flooring. Regular maintenance involves gentle vacuuming without the beater bar to protect the wool pile and woven structure over time.

FAQs

Veramin rugs are hand-woven south-east of Tehran and are renowned for their precise geometric and repeating floral patterns, most notably the Mina Khani rosette lattice motif.

They are traditionally hand-knotted using a durable wool pile spun onto a sturdy cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, ensuring structural longevity.

Authentic pieces exhibit clear, hand-bound selvedges, natural dye variations, and symmetrical hand-tied knots visible on the reverse alongside detailed, repeating floral motifs.

A blue-ground Veramin rug acts as a visual anchor in a room, contrasting elegantly against neutral upholstery, polished hardwood flooring, or contemporary brass furnishings.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug annually to balance sunlight exposure and foot traffic, and treat liquid spills immediately with a damp white cloth.
