About the Item

78672 Antique-Worn Persian Bakshaish Rug, 03'07 x 05'01. Persian Bakshaish rugs, originating from the village of Bakshaish in Northwestern Iran, are renowned for their bold geometric designs, vibrant earthy colors, and exceptional craftsmanship. These handwoven rugs typically feature large stylized motifs and utilize high-quality wool dyed with natural colors. Woven using the symmetrical knot technique on vertical looms, Bakshaish rugs come in various sizes and shapes, from small area rugs to room-sized carpets. Their historical significance and rarity, especially antique pieces from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, make Bakshaish rugs highly prized by collectors worldwide for their timeless beauty and cultural value. In the realm of modern rustic décor, behold this hand-knotted wool rug steeped in tribal enchantment and relaxed refinement, hailing from the ancient traditions of Persian Bakshaish craftsmanship. The rug's worn yet lovingly preserved demeanor tells a story of time's gentle caress, its surface adorned with a mesmerizing array of motifs. At its heart lies a hooked diamond medallion, intricately adorned with stylized florals and serrated leaves, floating on a weathered navy blue and sky blue backdrop that whispers of distant horizons and open skies. Amidst this tableau of history, one discovers a dance of elements — the hooked diamond center medallion anchored by Ram's Horn pendants, angular flowers, and boteh motifs, each telling their own tale of cultural resonance and tribal heritage. Yet, amidst the rugged grandeur, there is a delicate grace: rosettes delicately gracing each corner, imbuing the space with a sense of joy and feminine energy, like wildflowers peeking through a weathered fence, offering a glimpse of nature's enduring beauty. The rug's borders, too, bear witness to the artistry of its makers: a design of rosettes and serrated leaves encased within an inner and outer meander guard border, framing the narrative within, inviting one to trace the intricate paths of history woven into its very fabric. In this modern rustic tapestry, one finds not just a piece of décor, but a portal to another time, where tradition and craftsmanship intertwine, weaving a tale that resonates with the soul of the space it inhabits.​ Rendered in variegated shades of sky blue, red, navy blue, brick red, tan, beige, rose, brown, gray, and rust with other accent colors. Distressed. Desirable Age Wear. Abrash. Worn-In Look. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 03'07 x 05'01. Date: 1900s. Early 20th Century.
