This extraordinary antique Persian Bakhtiyari wool rug is a stunning example of village craftsmanship and bold floral artistry. Showcasing a striking central medallion set against a vibrant red field, the rug bursts with elaborate botanical motifs, lush blossoms, scrolling vines, and stylised foliage symmetrically arranged in rich jewel tones of navy, forest green, ivory, and gold.

The dramatic interplay between the deep crimson background and the ivory-accented borders gives the composition a regal presence. The border itself features an ornate floral pattern with alternating palmettes and rosettes, framed by guard stripes filled with fine vinework, echoing the organic rhythm of the main field.

Hand-knotted from high-quality wool, this Bakhtiyari rug combines durability with artistic depth. Its robust structure, saturated palette, and intricate detailing make it a collector’s gem perfect for adding timeless Persian character and bold sophistication to any interior.

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

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

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!
