This petite vintage Persian Shiraz rug bursts with vibrant tribal character and bold design. At its centre lies a striking rosette medallion, rendered in deep crimson, black, ivory, and orange, radiating with stylised floral motifs and dynamic geometric energy. Four matching circular medallions anchor each corner, creating a beautifully balanced composition.

Set against a rich red field, the rug is adorned with angular floral sprays, abstract trees of life, and animal figures, hallmarks of Shiraz tribal weaving. A serrated ivory border frames the piece with a rhythm of repeating motifs that enhance its folk-art charm.

Handwoven with handspun wool, this compact rug is ideal for adding a burst of colour and artisanal authenticity to small spaces, entryways, or layered bohemian interiors. Its bold palette and expressive design make it a captivating collectable from southern Iran's nomadic tradition.

Authentic vintage and antique Persian rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to these rugs' handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your rug in place and to smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.

Our rugs are professionally cleaned.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
