BAKHTIARI / 33106

This Bakhtiari antique rug measures 3' 4" x 20' 2" and presents a long, architectural field in layered blue, red, and neutral tones. A repeating geometric chain runs the length of the composition, balanced by small medallion forms and a finely drawn border that keeps the design orderly and restrained. The palette has softened with age, giving the surface a quiet, weathered depth while preserving clear pattern definition. Circa 1900 - 1930, it carries the elongated presence and graphic rhythm that distinguish this Bakhtiari weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
