A navy diamond medallion stands at the center of a deep red field on this charming rug. Stepped navy panels filled with rows of small hooked motifs in camel and cream break up the deep red field. A large navy diamond medallion sits at the center, holding a column of hooked shapes, while smaller forms in brown and peach align above and below it. Stepped lines in gray and tan separate the central red zone from the navy corner areas. A beautiful deep red border runs round the rug with a repeating pattern of small cream and brown figures, edged by narrow guard stripes in dark brown and tan. Small white specks show where the pile has worn low across the red ground. It anchors a small space, and the strong contrast between the red and navy keeps the geometric drawing clear. At 3'5" by 5'11", 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 Saveh rugs
Marco Polo wrote that the Three Magi set out from Saba, the city now called Saveh, and that they lay buried there in three large tombs side by side. An English consul named Abbott, who passed through Saveh in 1849, called it the most ruinous town he had ever seen. Saveh lies between Tehran and Arak in central Persia, on old caravan ground. The village weaving here sits between the geometric north and the floral center: medallions with straight edges, but filled with vine and blossom. The palette is warm, built on madder red with cream and indigo alongside. This rug keeps the straight-edged medallion and the warm red ground, though the filling inside the shapes is strictly geometric rather than floral. The stepped lines that divide the field create a sharp rhythm against the red ground.

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.
