Antique Tribal Geometric Diamond Gard Design Persian Bakhtiari Rug

$16,500.00

Antique Bakhtiari Room Size Wool Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1900s. This magnificent example of nomadic craftsmanship presents the scale and durability required of a room size format. Woven in the early 20th century, the rug's robust wool foundation and dense knotting speak to the high quality expected from this region. The field is dominated by a highly structured, dense geometric lattice, creating an allover design of interlocking, multi-sided medallions. Each compartment is filled with stylized tribal and floral motifs rendered in a rich, saturated palette of madder red, deep indigo, and warm ivory accents. This compartmentalization is a hallmark of the Bakhtiari weaving tradition. The striking color composition utilizes natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over a century, providing exceptional depth and visual texture.
