Vintage Persian Bakhtiari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 297 x 159 cm
Vintage Persian Bakhtiari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 297 x 159 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 the richness of a woven garden at dusk — layered, intricate and full of quiet movement. Its panelled field is alive with floral, tree, vase and bird-inspired motifs, each section carrying its own small world of colour and form. Deep reds, earthy greens, ivory, navy and softened multicolour details work together with the maturity that only a true vintage rug can hold.
Hand-knotted in Iran with a pure wool pile, this Bakhtiari piece feels both structured and expressive. The borders frame the design with strength, while the inner garden panels bring rhythm, depth and old Persian storytelling into the surface. It is not simply decorative; it has presence, memory and a collected character — the kind of rug that feels chosen, lived with and admired over time.

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.
