About the Item
The geographical region of Northwest Persia with its’ cities and villages was at the forefront of the large-scale export of rugs and carpets in the late 19th century. The merchants of Tabriz, a large city that is the capital of Persian Azerbaijan, are credited with the successful promotion of the carpet industry to the west. Hamadan is 6,000 feet above sea level and is a major production center and shipping market for primarily scatter rugs and runners. Many of the weavings from the roughly 600 small villages surrounding this commercial center are marketed and sold to the west from this city. These rugs utilize excellent quality wool and have a distinctive weave with a single-weft thread between each row of knots. The town of Serab primarily produced runners utilizing a camel-colored field. This color was obtained by dyeing sheep’s wool with walnut husks. The construction has a single weft thread passing between each row of knots, with older examples utilizing wool for the foundation threads. The patterns can vary, but many traditional examples have repeat patterns of hexagonal pole medallions. This rug has an overall Gul Henna pattern on an indigo field within a madder rosette and open camel outer borders. 6' 1" x 3' 7" .
