This antique Persian Hamadan rug, crafted circa 1935, showcases typical tribal design elements emblematic of the region's rich weaving tradition. Originating from one of Persia's oldest cities, Hamadan, the rug reflects the unique cultural and artistic influences of various ethnic groups in the area. These influences are evident in the rug's distinctive patterns and robust construction.
The rug features a rust-colored background, contrasted by a blue border that frames the design with precision. Dominated by red hues, the rug brings out a vibrant, warm ambiance. The choice of wool on cotton as the primary materials further enhances its durability and tactile appeal.
One of the defining characteristics of Hamadan carpets is their weaving technique. This rug likely employs the symmetric Ghiordes or Turkish knot, known for its durability. The design uses single-wefting with cotton warps and wefts, contributing to a coarse yet sturdy texture, typical of Hamadan pieces.
The geometric and curvilinear motifs are deeply rooted in local traditions. The intricate angular patterns and arabesques are hallmarks of the region's artisan craftsmanship. The design complexity reflects the diverse influences from the surrounding villages, contributing to a unique and recognizable aesthetic.
As a key commercial production center, Hamadan has maintained its traditional styles while remaining distinct from Western design influences. This rug exemplifies that focus on localized craftsmanship, with a strong connection to broader Persian and Caucasian design elements.
Over time, various ethnic groups and historical events have left their mark on Hamadan's weaving techniques and design motifs. This adds layers of cultural richness and historical depth to the rug, making it not just a decorative item but also a piece of cultural heritage.
In terms of visual description, the rug's primary colors are deep red, navy blue, and ivory, with accents of green, light blue, and pink, creating a rich and vibrant appearance. The dense, highly detailed pattern comprises an array of geometric and floral motifs. Multiple borders, each with its own pattern, frame the rug, contributing to its intricate design. The outermost border features a repeating floral motif on a deep red background, followed by a wider border with a rich floral and vine pattern on a navy blue backdrop, along with narrower borders in light green and ivory, each decorated with delicate floral patterns. This rug also displays perfect symmetry along both axes, characteristic of traditional designs, enhancing its visual balance.
A prominent central medallion forms the focal point of the rug. This medallion is exquisitely detailed, featuring symmetrical geometric shapes and floral patterns, primarily in deep red with accents in navy, ivory, and green. The medallion radiates outward, influencing the surrounding motifs and contributing to the rug's overall harmony and cohesiveness.

Don’t take our word for it


Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.


I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!


Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.
In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!


Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
