This Bakhtiari antique rug measures 315 x 447 cm and shows a faded, softly worn wool surface with a restrained, heritage-led palette. Blue, neutral, white, and cream dominate, while muted burgundy survives in the more sheltered pattern areas and along the border. The design retains a floral frame and a once-richer central field, now gently dissolved by age into a nuanced, almost washed composition. High distress, abrash, and edge character give the rug an authentic, weathered elegance. Circa 1940 - 1970. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
