{"product_id":"11086-10x17-persian-handmade-hamedan-vintage-rug","title":"11086 - Persian Hamedan Oversized Rug 10'4\" x 16'9\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe stepped medallion at the center draws the eye first on this lovely rug. Across a field that reads midnight from a distance, rows of small flowers and leaves in dark blue, teal and black sit close on a slate ground. The medallion is a stepped diamond with a fine outline, a small teal diamond at its core and a pendant pole above and below. Beautiful stepped spandrels in black fill the four corners, each carrying small slate flowers. The handsome slate border carries a chain of linked dark blue motifs. Guard stripes of small rosettes and a black zigzag band frame it on either side. The pile is low across the whole face. It suits a calm, cool room, and the black corners give the slate and teal some weight. At 10'4\" by 16'9\", it fits a dining table for six with the chairs pulled out, or a full living room seating group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHamedan has had many names: Hangmatana or Agbatana to the Medes, and Ecbatana to the Greeks. Hamedan is a weaving city and region in western Persia, and for generations hundreds of villages around it have sent rugs to its markets. This rug has a stepped center diamond with pendant poles, set in a field of small flowers repeated row after row. Black stepped spandrels close the four corners of the field. The color runs cool from edge to edge, slate and dark blue throughout, with teal in the medallion core and black in the corners. A broad slate border and several guard stripes frame it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. Hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, vintage, approx. 50 years (1970s). Condition: professionally washed \u0026amp; cleaned.
