Vintage Persian Bakhtiari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 287 x 155 cm
Vintage Persian Bakhtiari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 287 x 155 cm
One-of-a-kind vintage piece
Individually selected for its genuine vintage character, this piece carries a quiet sense of history through its pattern language, colour tone and time-softened textile depth
This Vintage Persian Bakhtiari Rug has a rare sense of order and theatre. Three diamond medallions rise through the warm brown field, surrounded by red angular forms, ivory detailing and a border alive with blue, red and earthy floral motifs. The whole composition feels deliberate — structured, expressive and full of old Persian character.
Hand-knotted in wool, the rug carries the depth and individuality that make a true vintage piece feel special. Its colours have a mature richness rather than a loud brightness, with softened reds, browns, ivory and blue working together through strong Bakhtiari geometry. It is a rug with presence, history and quiet authority — refined, balanced and unmistakably handmade.

Care & Maintenance
- Vintage rugs should be cared for gently to preserve their age-softened fibres, colour character and handmade structure. Vacuum 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, especially for vintage handmade rugs, to help protect the wool, dyes and textile character developed over time.
Note
- Each vintage 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.
- Vintage handmade rugs may show gentle tonal variation, age-softened texture and individual textile character developed over time.
- These natural characteristics are part of the rug’s vintage appeal, giving each piece its own pattern language, colour tone and woven depth.
