A dense herati lattice makes this a lovely rug. The deep red field carries a dense herati lattice, the fish-and-leaf lattice, worked in cream, brown and touches of rust. A gorgeous cream diamond medallion sits at the center, holding a small floral core. Cream triangular corner pieces carry bold floral sprays in red and dark brown. The main border runs rust and brown, set with a row of small rosettes, flowers seen from above. Narrow guard stripes in near-black and cream edge the border on both sides. A vertical band of pale wear runs down the center, and pale foundation shows in worn patches. A warm red line stretches down the passage, with cream corners breaking up the heavy red. At 4'2" by 9'4", it fits a hallway or the space along the side of 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 Hosseinabad rugs
Hamedan, the market city for the villages around it, is built partly on the mound of Ecbatana, the capital of Media, founded by Greek account around 678 BCE. Rugs from the villages around Hamedan were taken to the city, long one of the great rug markets of Persia, and were often sold abroad under its name. Hosseinabad is a village name that appears across the Hamedan weaving country of western Persia. The drawing is geometric with a large central figure, and these are plain-spoken village rugs. This rug keeps that geometric drawing and the large central figure, the cream diamond set hard against the red field. The herati lattice across the field is a finer, more repeated pattern than the plain village work usually carries, filling the ground around the medallion rather than leaving it open.

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.
