Bakhtiari / 18957

This Bakhtiari antique rug measures 15' 10" x 22' 10" and presents an all-over field of diamond medallions, small tribal ornaments, and layered floral borders. The composition feels animated yet balanced, with faded turquoise, rust red, muted gold, and ivory set against a deep brown ground. Visible wear has softened the drawing and introduced a weathered, luminous character across the surface. Circa 1925 - 1945, this wool Bakhtiari carries the grounded elegance and spirited patterning associated with the form, while its medium distress adds depth, texture, and a quietly timeworn presence.
