If you’re drawn to bold, tribal flair, this vintage Meshkin rug from 1950s–1960s Persia certainly delivers. Hand-knotted in Meshginshahr using hand-spun wool, it features a gorgeous low pile that’s both soft and practical. The first thing you’ll notice is the deep midnight-navy field—which makes those vibrant red and saffron-yellow octagonal medallions simply pop off the surface. Surrounding them, you’ll find stylized birds(see those peacocks?), abstract totems, and tribal symbols that give the piece a lively, almost storybook quality.

A warm, honey-gold border frames it all, adorned with repeating motifs in the same playful colors. The result is an eye-catching, graphic composition that feels both historic and unexpectedly modern.

At 4’7” × 6’9”, it’s the perfect size to add a hit of color and pattern to a smaller living area, brighten up a foyer, or even anchor the foot of a bed. If you love the idea of a rug that merges classic Persian craftsmanship with cheerful, tribal design, this Meshkin checks all the boxes.

Please Consider

Our rugs are truly unique and crafted with care. Their vintage and handmade nature means they may have imperfections and signs of wear, which add character. Each rug is handmade, so it may not be a perfect rectangle.

We strive to capture the rugs’ true colors in daylight photography, but they might appear slightly different in low-light environments or on different screen settings.

We’re happy to provide photos taken in different lighting or answer any questions.

Feel free to reach out if you need more information or assistance.

Sustainability

For every rug you purchase, we plant one tree.

Choosing vintage and antique rugs reduces waste, lowers the demand for new materials, and extends product lifespan—reducing your carbon footprint. Our rugs are crafted from natural and recyclable materials, promoting sustainability and environmental friendliness.

Care Instructions

Vacuuming

Regular vacuuming keeps your rug looking its best and extends its lifespan, reducing the need for professional cleaning. For best results, vacuum both the front and back sides of the rug from side to side, avoiding the fringes.

Spills

If spills occur, blot them immediately with a cloth. Then spray water on the spot and blot again, repeating as needed. For pet urine, spray white vinegar to help break down the enzymes that cause odor.

Professional Rug Cleaning

It’s generally recommended to have your rug professionally cleaned every five years, but trust your instincts—if it appears to need cleaning, don’t hesitate to have it washed. Hand-knotted carpets should never be dry cleaned or steam cleaned. Wall-to-wall carpet cleaning companies are usually not a good option. Always choose a professional rug cleaner who specializes in cleaning fine, handwoven carpets. If you’re in the GTA, we can provide professional rug cleaning for you!
