Bakhtiari 1803

This rare vintage Persian Bakhtiari area rug, hand-knotted in the mid-20th century, showcases a highly desirable “square-size” format that adds a unique architectural balance to interior layouts. The rug features an elegant open field design centered by a grand floral medallion, rendered in soft hues of baby blue, earthy brown, forest green, and deep red. Set against a luminous ivory ground, the composition strikes a graceful balance between structure and spontaneity.

Expertly woven with tightly knotted, high-quality wool and retaining its full pile, this piece is not only a visual treasure but also a testament to the durability and craftsmanship of Persian weaving traditions. Its excellent condition and refined palette make it ideal for both classic and modern interiors—perfect as a focal point in living rooms, libraries, or under a statement dining table.
