This antique Persian rug features the traditional Bakhtiari tribal design, crafted around 1930. Originating from the Bakhtiari region in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, this rug embodies the unique weaving traditions upheld by the Bakhtiari tribes. Woven with wool on a cotton foundation, it showcases exceptional craftsmanship typical of the era and area.
The rug's primary background is a warm brick color, while an ivory border provides a striking contrast, enhancing the intricate patterns within. Dominated by rich red tones, the design includes a central medallion that radiates outward with detailed floral and geometric motifs. These include a mixture of ivory, navy blue, green, and various shades of red, contributing to the rug's vibrant yet balanced color palette.
The borders of the rug are composed of multiple layers. The outermost layer features a cream background adorned with dark red, green, and navy blue floral and paisley-like motifs. Within this, an inner secondary border displays intricate symmetrical designs predominantly in deep red and navy blue, maintaining the visual coherence of the piece.
One of the defining features of this Bakhtiari rug is its high symmetrical design, evident in both the vertical and horizontal axes, particularly around the central medallion. This symmetry extends to the arrangement of floral motifs, which are carefully balanced throughout the rug. The density of patterns is another notable characteristic, with minimal plain space, as the decorative motifs fill almost every portion, including the borders and central area.
The rug's central medallion serves as a focal point, showcasing a multifaceted, star-like design that draws the eye inward and highlights the rug's intricate details. This element, combined with the rich colors and meticulous craftsmanship, makes it a representative example of Bakhtiari tribal art from the early 20th century.
