5570 · 7'1" x 9'10" Persian Bakhtiari Area Rug

Hexagonal compartments divide this burgundy rug into many charming gardens. A grid of hexagonal compartments divides the burgundy field into many small gardens. Each panel holds a tree, a vase or a flowering plant in dark brown, rose and cream. There is no central medallion, only the gorgeous repeating lattice that covers the whole ground. The main border is a row of cream-outlined hexagons with red, brown and near-black centers. Narrow guard stripes in a rose and brown zigzag run along both edges of the hexagons. The pile is low across the center, where white specks show and the drawing reads paler than at the edges. It brings a structured warmth to a room, the dark brown and near-black drawing grounding the softer red and rose tones. At 7'1" by 9'10", it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.

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.
