About the Item
A stunning antique Persian Hamadan rug from the 1920s, exemplifying the vibrant color palette and bold geometric artistry that made Hamadan weavings highly sought after by collectors. This hand-knotted wool masterpiece features a dramatic central medallion design with striking orange and cream chevron patterns that create a mesmerizing focal point against the rich crimson red field.
The rug's design showcases classic Persian Hamadan elements: a large hexagonal central medallion flanked by smaller geometric medallions above and below, all surrounded by an array of stylized floral motifs, rosettes, and tribal symbols in brilliant orange, pink, cream, and golden yellow. The deep navy blue accents and black outlines provide dramatic contrast, making each design element stand out with remarkable clarity.
The wide borders display traditional Persian floral and geometric patterns in soft pink with burgundy guard borders, creating an elegant frame for the dynamic central composition. The exceptional use of natural dyes has resulted in a harmonious palette that combines warm reds, vibrant oranges, soft pinks, and rich earth tones—colors that have mellowed beautifully over the past century while retaining their luminosity.
In notably good condition for its age, this piece retains excellent pile integrity and vibrant colors throughout. The bold design and generous size make it a statement piece that commands attention, perfect for collectors who appreciate the artistic excellence of early 20th-century Persian village weaving.
