This Persian Bakhtiari rug, originating from circa 1920, is a notable example of tribal weaving, characterized by its distinctive design and rich cultural heritage. Created by the Bakhtiari tribes in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, this rug showcases traditional weaving practices upheld in a region known for its challenging terrain and resilient artisans.
The rug exhibits a terracotta background and a moss green border, with beige as the main color. The design is intricate, featuring dense floral and geometric motifs. Stylized flowers, intricate vines, and symmetrical shapes are woven meticulously into the pattern, reflecting a high level of craftsmanship. The combination of nomadic tribal motifs and urban design influences is evident, distinguishing this rug from other Persian styles that typically favor a single approach.
Bakhtiari weavers are renowned for their use of high-quality wool, woven on a cotton foundation. The use of natural dyeing techniques is apparent in the rich color palette. Deep reds dominate, especially in the central medallion, complemented by extensive use of blue in the background and green in various floral motifs. Beige and ivory serve as highlights, outlining the various patterns and adding depth to the overall design.
The borders of the rug are elaborately designed, with the primary border featuring repeated floral motifs, possibly alternating between flowers and geometric shapes. This wide border is flanked by narrower secondary borders, which include simpler linear and geometric patterns.
Symmetry is a key element in the rug’s design, both horizontally and vertically, creating a balanced and harmonious appearance. The central medallion and surrounding motifs mirror each other along the main axes, contributing to the overall elegant and cohesive look. The pattern density is high, with intricate designs filling nearly the entire surface, imparting a luxurious and ornate quality to the rug.
This Persian Bakhtiari rug encapsulates the essence of the tribe’s artistic heritage, blending historical significance with superior craftsmanship.
