Antique Large Bakshaish Geometric Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of a bakshaish rug showcases the distinctive tribal-geometric aesthetic favored by weavers in the Heriz region during the late 19th century. The intricate all-over pattern, characterized by highly stylized botanical and geometric elements, creates a mesmerizing visual texture. The palette is defined by rich, oxidized tones of deep cocoa and warm beige, beautifully complemented by the striking indigo blue border. Subtle accents of pale terracotta and faded green color rugs emerge within the dense field, testifying to the use of natural dyes that have achieved a magnificent, century-old patina. The large scale and robust construction of this piece confirm its status as a highly desirable room size rug, designed to anchor a sophisticated interior space.
