3236 · 2'4" x 5'4" Persian Zanjan Accent Rug

A large red octagon holds the center of this amazing rug. On a navy field, splendid stepped red medallions with lavender cores run down the center in a vertical column. The central figure is a large red octagon holding a grid of small geometric motifs, linked by narrow connectors to smaller stepped diamonds above and below. Lavender spandrels with red geometric marks fill the four corners of the field. A gorgeous brick border carries a repeating pattern of small cream and navy marks, flanked by narrow guard stripes in brown and black. The pile is full across the face, keeping the deep red and navy distinct. The strong geometric contrast stands clear, and the rug suits a narrow passage. At 2'4" by 5'4", 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.
