{"product_id":"11192-7x10-persian-handmade-bakhtiari-vintage-rug","title":"11192 - Persian Bakhtiari Area Rug 7'1\" x 10'4\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eA red and navy star sits at the heart of this lovely rug. Across a cream field, red flower heads and navy blossoms grow on slender vines around the center. The medallion is an eight-pointed star, its red points holding small flowering trees and its navy points holding red flower heads. Green leaves radiate from a small navy star at the core. A handsome red pendant with a tree inside sits above the star, and another sits below it. Blue spandrels fill the four corners, each holding a green cartouche of red flowers beside tall red sprays. The deep red main border carries a pretty vine of flowers in navy, green and cream. Narrow guard stripes set with small rosettes run on either side of it. The pile is low across the rug. The dense drawing brings deep red and navy into a room, while the cream ground keeps the center bright. At 7'1\" by 10'4\", it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1909 Bakhtiari tribesmen under the chief Sardar Assad captured Tehran in a successful campaign for constitutional reform. Bakhtiari rugs were made under the patronage of the tribe in certain villages southwest of Isfahan. Bakhtiari weaving comes from the Zagros mountains of western Persia, and the garden panel is its signature. Bakhtiari weavers moved their herds twice a year. In the garden panel, each compartment holds its own tree, vase or flowering plant. This rug gives its star the same habit: each point holds its own small tree or spray of flowers. Around the star, the cream field stays open and bright, set with red flower heads and navy blossoms. The blue corners frame it with green cartouches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it.
