Unique piece – only one available

This semi-antique Bakhtiari rug captures the spirit of tribal storytelling and classical Persian design in a bold, symmetrical layout. Hand-knotted in the Bakhtiari region of Iran, it reflects the enduring artistry of its weavers.

The all-over floral pattern, rich with palmettes, rosettes, and stylised blossoms, unfolds across a deep red field, framed by a border adorned with animal figures and floral elements. The ivory, dark blue, and olive green accents bring depth to the composition, while touches of soft pink, burnt orange, and golden yellow add warmth and contrast.

A strong red border, flanked by narrow guard bands, reinforces the structure and balance of the design. The interplay of bold colour and intricate symmetry gives this piece a commanding presence, perfect for traditional or characterful interiors.

Rooted in heritage and alive with detail, this Bakhtiari rug offers more than decoration—it offers a story. Enquire today to bring it into your home.

Bakhtiari rugs reflect the rich weaving traditions of western Iran, spanning both tribal and settled communities. While the region is famed for its distinctive Chahar Bagh (four-garden) panel layouts – a design rooted in classical Persian garden symbolism – Bakhtiari weavers also produce medallion, floral, and all-over compositions. From robust tribal carpets to finely knotted workshop pieces, these rugs showcase a diversity of colour, pattern, and craftsmanship that speaks to the cultural breadth of the Bakhtiar region.

If you need help finding a rug to suit, or if you've seen a rug that you like but it's not quite the right size, let us know and give us your minimum and maximum sizes and we can help you find the perfect rug.

How do I care for my handmade rug or carpet?

Handmade Persian and Oriental rugs should be vacuumed regularly, we always recommend that where possible you should use the suction-only setting on your vacuum as it is more gentle on the pile and will help prolong the life of your rug. However we do recognise that most people will use the brush bar and this of course does a more thorough job.

Key is to ensure the rug does not become overly dusty a small dust and debris particles like sand can be sharp and can cut through the fibres over time.

We do suggest you be careful nearer the tassels (fringes) and sides (selvages) of the rug as these get caught in a vacuum.

On top of this we recommend professional rug cleaning every 5 years or so, this will help remove ingrained dust and dirt and refresh the rug, ensuring it maintains its looks for years and even generations to come.
