About the Item

Late 19th Century Persian Bakhtiari Carpet ( 13'10" x 26'6" - 422 x 808 ) This exceptional example of bakhtiari weaving with its late nineteenth-century provenance ensures a quality of wool and dye rarely seen in later productions, reflecting the height of Qajar-era craftsmanship. The central field is dominated by an exquisitely abrashed grey brown and blue ground, which provides a balanced contrast to the warm muted palette of the trellised motifs. Traditional Bakhtiari designs often employ a dense, repeating lattice structure, showcasing the mastery of natural dyeing techniques prevalent during this period. While specific dimensions are required for placement, the scale of this piece suggests it was intended as a grand room size rug, designed to anchor a formal salon or dining space. The robust construction inherent to the nomadic and village traditions of the region ensures its enduring structural integrity, a testament to the longevity of true antique rugs. The intricate, all-over composition avoids a central medallion, instead offering a dynamic yet balanced field of stylized palmettes.
