About the Item

Playful yet sophisticated, this small Persian carpet from the 1990s features a stylized animal at its center, framed by trees, floral motifs, and a patterned border in earthy tones. Hand-knotted in pure wool, its deep green field provides a lush backdrop that highlights the cream-colored figure and intricate accents throughout. This unique weaving reflects the enduring storytelling tradition found in Persian art, where animals often symbolize strength, vitality, and connection to nature. The composition’s balance of whimsy and symmetry gives the piece a timeless charm that feels both ancient and unexpectedly modern. Crafted entirely by hand using traditional techniques, the rug embodies lasting quality and sustainability. Woven with care and intention, it stands as both a collectible artwork and a piece made to endure—an antique of the future.

Vintage Qashqai Animal Rug, Red, Wool, Circa 1940s, 4’ x 6’
Located in New York, NY
