Bakhtiari / 24279

This Bakhtiari antique rug measures 396 x 544 cm and shows a richly faded, tactile surface that softens its detailed floral composition. The blue ground is threaded with neutral, cream, white, and muted blush notes, while the border carries palmettes, vine scrolls, and repeated floral forms in a balanced frame. Wear has mellowed the contrast across the field, allowing the pattern to read as layered and atmospheric rather than sharp. Circa 1940 - 1960, it offers the quiet character of age with an understated, heritage-led palette. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
