Hamadan / 20126

This Hamadan antique rug, measuring 89 x 137 cm, presents a compact composition of strong geometry and quiet wear. A cream centre is anchored by a navy and red medallion, then enclosed by red lattice borders and a blue outer border threaded with floral and angular motifs. The palette of blue, neutral, white, and cream is softened by age, with low distress that leaves the design legible and tactile. Circa 1930 - 1955, it reflects the restrained balance and tribal structure associated with Hamadan weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
