Geometric vines and small rosettes in deep red, antique gold and olive make this a lovely rug. Across a deep indigo field, a dense lattice of geometric vines and small rosettes in deep red, antique gold and olive fills the space. A central chain of three hexagons runs down the middle, the middle one holding a camel ground with a stylized flower core. Handsome red corner pieces with cream serrated edges close the four corners of the field. The main border is burgundy, carrying a repeat of octagonal rosettes and diamond shapes in gold, orange and blue. Narrow guard stripes in dark indigo and red edge the border on both sides. A few small low spots show as white flecks in the dark field and the borders, and the pile is full elsewhere. It anchors a sitting area, and the dark ground lets the red motifs glow. At 5' by 10'3", it fits a bedroom beside the bed, a study under a desk, or a small sitting area.
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 Hamedan rugs
A shrine in Hamedan long called the tomb of Esther is, by Britannica’s account, the tomb of Queen Shushandukht, wife of the Sasanian king Yazdegerd I. The physician and philosopher Avicenna died in Hamedan in 1037, and in the 1950s his tomb there was rebuilt as a mausoleum with a museum and a library. Hamedan is a city and weaving region in western Persia, and hundreds of villages around the city have sent rugs to its markets for generations. Long narrow formats are a Hamedan specialty, woven for the corridors of local houses, which is why so many of the best vintage runners come from here. This rug keeps that geometric vocabulary, with stepped hexagons and angular vines set hard against the dark ground. Its three hexagons gather the lattice into a chain at the center, and the red corner pieces frame it.

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.
