About the Item

Size: 4'7" x 5'7" Date: Early 20th Century (circa 1900–1920) Construction: Hand-knotted wool pile on cotton foundation This finely woven antique rug represents a classic and highly decorative example of tribal village weaving . This rug is known for their structured compositions and intricate geometric or garden-inspired designs —a tradition clearly expressed in this well-preserved piece. The composition is centered around a large, faceted diamond medallion, filled with a precise lattice of repeating rosettes and stylized floral elements. Each small motif is carefully articulated, creating a sense of rhythm and refinement within the geometric framework. Surrounding the medallion, the field is densely decorated with micro-patterned detailing, adding texture and visual depth. The drawing is crisp and balanced, reflecting a confident village hand with a strong sense of proportion. Color & Palette (Key Strength) The rug features a rich and harmonious palette, dominated by: Deep navy blue ground, providing strong contrast and structure Warm brick red and soft coral tones throughout the medallion and field Accents of ivory, light yellow, and soft beige, adding brightness and clarity Subtle touches of sage green and muted earth tones, enhancing depth The colors are well-preserved, with excellent saturation and minimal fading—particularly notable for a rug of this age. Border System The rug is framed by a beautifully drawn border system: A main border featuring stylized floral motifs and angular vine work Guard borders with smaller repeating elements that reinforce the geometric theme Strong contrast between the navy and red tones enhances the overall presentation. Condition Excellent / near perfect condition for its age Full pile with minimal wear Ends and sides intact Clean, well-maintained example This level of preservation is above average for an antique Bakhtiari of this period. Collector & Decorative Appeal This rug offers a desirable combination of: Classic Bakhtiari lattice/medallion composition Fine drawing and clarity Strong, saturated color palette Practical and versatile room size It works equally well as a collector’s textile or a high-quality decorative accent piece Retail Value Assessment (Realistic Market) Based on: Size (4'7" x 5'7") Condition (excellent) Quality and design Current market comparables Estimated Retail Value: $2,500 – $3,500
