This beautiful vintage Northwest Persian Kelleh wool rug is a commanding piece that blends tribal geometry with rustic elegance. Its elongated format is ideal for corridors or large transitional spaces, and it features three boldly drawn medallions arranged vertically along a deep crimson field. The medallions, rendered in a dramatic palette of charcoal, rose, rust, and golden ochre, are stepped and stylised, surrounded by angular floral and symbolic motifs that suggest protective and spiritual meaning.
The field is framed by an ivory border filled with a continuous procession of geometric rosettes and tribal emblems in saturated hues, providing vivid contrast and balance. Hand-knotted from high-quality wool, the rug features a soft, worn texture and a robust structure, characteristic of the skilled weaving traditions of Iran’s northwestern regions. This Kelleh rug is both decorative and durable, bringing heritage and richness to any setting.
Authentic vintage and antique Persian rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
