About the Item
A Celebration of Persian Garden Design
Command attention with this striking antique Persian Bakhtiari rug, hand-knotted from highly durable wool circa the 1920s. Originating from the Bakhtiari region, known for producing some of the most durable and vividly colored tribal rugs, this piece beautifully embodies the essence of the Khesti, or “Garden Panel,” design — a symbolic representation of a formal Persian garden, organized, structured, and bursting with vitality.
—
Vivid Khesti Design and Dynamic Composition
The central field of this rug unfolds in a captivating grid of individual panels, each containing its own geometric or floral motif. This rhythmic arrangement reflects both order and abundance — qualities cherished in Persian artistry. The palette is masterfully balanced: deep navy blue forms the background, while brick red, gold, sky blue, and cream tones bring vibrancy and warmth. The contrast between these hues creates remarkable visual depth, giving the rug an architectural presence that enhances both traditional and modern interiors.
—
Exceptional Wool Quality and Craftsmanship
Bakhtiari rugs are celebrated for their thick, resilient wool and long-lasting construction. This example remains in good antique condition, with a full pile that demonstrates its superior craftsmanship and the enduring quality of natural fibers. Vegetable dyes have matured over the years to reveal a deep, saturated glow, adding a sense of authenticity and quiet luxury to the piece.
—
Timeless Elegance and Functional Beauty
Measuring approximately 5' × 6'4" (152 cm × 193 cm), this substantial area rug is ideal for living rooms, dining spaces, or studies — places where its structure and artistry can take center stage. Both visually commanding and emotionally warm, it connects a century of Persian tradition with the refined aesthetics of contemporary design.
