Details

This beautifully preserved antique Bakhtiari rug features a rhythmic grid of stepped medallions, blossoming with stylized florals, tree-of-life motifs, and tribal symbology rendered in a rare and soft rosewood ground. Deep plum, indigo, pine green, and cocoa tones interplay across the wool, producing a glowing abrash that intensifies the organic geometry. The tactile richness of its dense hand-knotted pile and balance of symmetry offer both grounding elegance and emotive visual cadence.
