One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece

No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character

This is a rug that reveals itself in stages. First comes the great ivory medallion, set like an illuminated crest against a deep red field. Then the finer structure of the composition emerges: flowering branches, rosettes, palmettes and small angular devices, gathered within passages of dark navy and a densely articulated border.

Hand-knotted in Iran from wool, this Persian Bakhtiari rug draws on the weaving heritage of southwestern Iran, where commanding medallions and stylised botanical geometry form part of a longstanding design vocabulary. Its strength lies in the balance between monument and miniature—a powerful centre surrounded by details that reward every closer look.

Care & Maintenance

  • Hand-knotted wool rugs are made to last with the right care. Vacuum gently using a suction-only setting, rotate the rug occasionally for even wear, and blot any marks promptly with a clean cloth rather than rubbing.
  • For deeper cleaning, professional rug cleaning is recommended to help protect the wool fibres, natural dyes and hand-knotted structure of the rug.

Note

  • Each rug is professionally photographed to represent its colours as accurately as possible, while natural light, pile direction and digital display settings may create subtle variations in tone.
  • Where additional colour is required, the wool in our hand-knotted rugs is coloured exclusively with vegetable dyes, complementing the fibre’s natural tonal variation and the individual character of the weave.
  • Over time, vegetable-dyed handmade rugs may gently soften in tone, adding to the natural ageing and textile character that makes each piece unique.
