Hooked and abstract figures run down the length of this charming rug. At the center, a column of hooked and abstract figures in charcoal and cream sits on a gray beige field with red showing through at the ends. The design repeats down the length without a single medallion and runs freely to the edges. A splendid red main border frames the piece, carrying a zigzag line in dark brown and beige. Thin dark brown bands edge the border on both sides. The pile is worn low across the face, and the foundation shows through in many places. A narrow passage suits this rug, with the rose and red tones sitting gently together. At 2'11" by 5'9", it fits an entry, a hallway corner or the space beside a bed.
Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
About Ferdos rugs
Under the Safavid dynasty in the 16th and 17th centuries Khorasan was a larger province that also took in the cities of Merv and Herat. Travelers of the Safavid era remarked on the fine Khorasan carpets sold in the Persian Gulf port of Hormuz and in one of the main caravansaries of Isfahan. Ferdos lies in the Khorasan region of eastern Persia, in the same weaving belt as Birjand and Mashhad. This rug keeps a repeating structure down the length rather than a single medallion. The drawing in this piece is more geometric than floral, and the palette rests on gray beige with red.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
