5506 · 6'3" x 10'5" Persian Shiraz Area Rug

On this lovely rug, three joined diamond medallions run down the center. Worked on a burgundy field, small geometric sprays and hooked vines in cream, blue and green fill the open space. Three joined diamond medallions run down the center, the top and bottom ones on a near-black ground and the middle one on cream, each with a stepped core. Gorgeous near-black spandrels sit in all four corners, each holding one diamond ringed in cream. A deep red border runs around the field, set with a wavy cream line and small angular marks. Thin guard stripes of cream dots and zigzags sit on both sides. Full pile covers the field and each border band. It suits a room with warm wood tones, where the deep red and scattered cream notes stay gentle. At 6'3" by 10'5", it fits a living room with the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, or beside a queen 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.
