Wool Blue and Red Antique Rectangle 1930s Hand Knotted Pile Geometric Medallion Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This compelling tribal piece, from the Afshar weaving tradition of Persia, showcases the robust character typical of antique rugs from the early 20th century. The hand-knotted wool pile provides a durable texture and rich saturation, reflecting generations of weaving expertise. The palette is defined by a striking contrast between saturated reds and a deep blue central field. This masterful use of natural dyes creates a visual depth highly sought after in tribal textiles, emphasizing the dramatic power of blue color rugs. The secondary colors—ivory, ochre, and subtle greens—are used judiciously to highlight the intricate border system. Structurally, the rug centers around a stepped, elongated medallion, framed by serrated edges and stylized motifs.
