About the Item
61119 Antique Persian Hamadan Rug, 04'03 x 06'09. A symphony of color and craftsmanship, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Hamadan rug invites the viewer into a world where history, luxury, and artistry converge. Every knot tells a story of mastery and patience, woven in the storied valleys of Hamadan—a region revered for producing some of Persia’s most enduring designs. Here, the weaver’s hand has orchestrated a vision of regal intensity: a composition steeped in centuries of tradition, yet alive with vibrancy and movement. It is not merely a rug; it is a living heirloom, whispering of dynastic grandeur and cultivated taste.
The deep midnight field sets the stage for a captivating dance of signature Herati motifs—stylized blossoms encircling diamond rosettes—rendered in shades of crimson, pomegranate, coral, and aged gold. Each form unfolds with painterly rhythm, an elegant interplay of symmetry and spontaneity. The luminous palette, softened by time yet still radiant, embodies the unmistakable soul of Hamadan weaving. The eye is drawn inward toward the layers of sumptuous color that seem to pulse with quiet vitality, recalling the timeless gardens and architectural ornamentation of old Persia.
Framing this elaborate field is a succession of borders—each a masterpiece in miniature. The primary border, adorned with scrolling leaves and the signature rhodian lily motif, creates a sense of flowing continuity, while inner guard bands of meandering water patterns add balance and refinement. This marriage of geometric precision and botanical grace epitomizes the duality of Persian aesthetics: nature distilled through mathematical order, beauty restrained by discipline.
For the discerning collector or designer of rarefied spaces, this exquisite work of art offers more than visual splendor—it offers prestige. Its depth of hue and intricacy of pattern transform any interior into a setting of cultivated warmth and historical resonance. To live with such a piece is to possess a fragment of Persian legacy, a tangible connection to the artistry of a bygone age where every precious rug was a poem written in wool, and every design a testament to the pursuit of perfection.
Rendered in variegated shades of midnight, black ink blue, red, cerise, burgundy, brown, maroon, hot pink, orange, glaucous, sage, rust, tan, wine and coffee with other accent colors.
