Antique Persian Allover Geometric Wool Hand Knotted Pile Brown Earth Tone 1880s Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1880s. This exquisite piece represents the finest tradition of Iranian Persian rugs from the late Qajar era. Its dense, hand-knotted wool pile and highly saturated dyes speak to its village provenance, featuring a captivating, dense allover design populated by stylized human figures, animals, and tribal motifs, characteristic of nomadic weaving. The foundation of this textile is a rich, deep brown earth tone, providing a dramatic contrast for the vibrant secondary colors. Accents of madder red, indigo blue, and soft saffron yellow are strategically deployed, creating visual depth without sacrificing the rug's overall sophisticated patina. The natural wool fibers have mellowed beautifully over more than 140 years.
