Description

This vintage Persian Yazd rug from the mid-20th century features a refined floral design highlighted by a rare pomegranate red field — a warm, deeply saturated tone that radiates the richness of natural madder dye. At its center rests a small navy medallion beautifully balanced by vase-inspired corner spandrels, all framed by a rich navy border that enhances the rug's symmetry and visual depth. Woven with a tight weave and medium knot density, this Yazd rug demonstrates the technical accomplishment and decorative sophistication of Central Persian city weaving.

Yazd, located in the center of the Iranian plateau, is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and a historic center of silk weaving and carpet production. Yazd rugs are distinguished by their fine weave, their rich natural dye palettes, and a design vocabulary that draws on the great Classical Persian tradition while adding a regional character of considerable warmth and refinement.
