Antique Persian Allover Floral Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional piece from the early 20th century showcases a tightly composed field featuring an endless repeat of stylized boteh motifs, characteristic of allover rugs that prioritize continuous visual flow rather than a central medallion.
The primary palette is anchored by a deep indigo ground, providing a rich, saturated backdrop for the repeating elements. This use of profound, natural dyes creates the visual depth highly prized in blue color rugs from this era, contrasting beautifully with the warm rusts and subtle greens found in the secondary details.
Woven in the 1930s, this rug represents the enduring craftsmanship of Iranian Persian rugs, demonstrating a sophisticated balance between tribal geometry and classical Persian design elements. The quality of the hand-knotted wool pile speaks to the high standards maintained by regional workshops during this period of prolific production.
Its elongated, narrow format designates it as an ideal hallway runner rug, perfectly suited to define a long corridor or entryway with historical elegance. This specific piece, with its excellent preservation and complex border system, is a fine example among our curated selection of antique rugs available for the discerning collector.
