This lovely small vintage Persian Shiraz rug is a striking example of tribal design in a compact format. Woven with a bold red field, it features a pair of connected stepped diamond medallions rendered in deep indigo and black, each framed by jagged outlines and flanked by symbolic tribal motifs. Scattered throughout the field are stylised animals and geometric emblems, each carrying traditional meaning and adding to the rug's folkloric character.
The borders are rich with visual energy, decorated in serrated triangles and intricate bands of linear motifs in earthy reds, ivory, and dark browns. Hand-knotted from durable wool, this rug boasts a robust, textured feel, making it an ideal accent piece for entryways, reading nooks, or under a coffee table. Its bold palette and primitive charm make it a true expression of Shiraz's nomadic artistry.
Authentic vintage and antique Persian rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
