1900s Authentic Antique Persian Bakhtiari Shiraz Hand Knotted Wool Rug - 8'1'' x 11'5''

This antique Shiraz Bakhtiari hand‑knotted wool rug, woven, is a beautifully preserved testament to early 20th‑century Persian tribal craftsmanship. Created by skilled village weavers in the highland regions between Bakhtiari and Shiraz, it reflects the bold geometry, expressive motifs, and natural dye traditions that define the finest tribal rugs of the era. Its color palette, rooted in natural vegetable dyes, has matured into a warm, earthy harmony. The field features a blend of walnut brown, camel beige, and natural ivory, enriched with accents of deep chocolate brown and subtle touches of olive grey. These tones have softened gracefully over time, creating the inviting, vintage character.
At the center, a striking diamond medallion anchors the composition of an iconic Bakhtiari design, surrounded by smaller geometric motifs and framed by a classic Shiraz‑style floral border. This interplay of angular tribal forms and stylized botanical elements beautifully captures the artistic dialogue between nomadic Bakhtiari traditions and the decorative sensibilities of Shiraz village weaving. Crafted with care using 100% wool, this hand-knotted rug radiates a subtle sheen and showcases the beautiful patina that comes with years of love. Its adaptable size and warm, earthy tones make it perfect for entryways, studies, bedside areas, or layered spaces that desire richness, texture, and a touch of heritage. A true collectible, this early 20th‑century Shiraz–Bakhtiari rug embodies authentic craftsmanship, natural dyes, and timeless Persian design, making it a standout piece for curated homes and discerning collectors.
