Bakhtiari / 20436

This Bakhtiari antique rug measures 323 x 386 cm and unfolds in an allover field of geometric medallions, softened floral motifs, and layered borders in neutral brown, faded blue, green, burgundy, and ivory. The composition feels structured and rhythmic, with repeating forms that balance clarity and abrasion. Its wool pile shows low distress, with gentle fading and a worn, mellow surface that brings out the rug’s depth and age. Circa 1920 - 1940, it reflects the restrained richness and graphic order that define this Bakhtiari weaving, while retaining a tactile, quietly atmospheric character.
