If you’re in the mood for bright, bold tribal charm, this vintage Meshkin rug from the mid-20th century delivers in spades. Hand-knotted in Meshginshahr, northwest Persia, it showcases a dramatic midnight-navy field that sets off a trio of sizable geometric “cross” medallions in a vibrant poppy red. Within these crosses, you’ll find sky-blue petals framing a small central motif—almost like a stylized flower in full bloom. Lively accents of saffron-gold and burnt orange throughout the border further elevate the color story, tying together a palette that’s distinctly cheerful and eye-catching.

Crafted with a lustrous wool pile on a sturdy cotton foundation, this roughly 5’ × 8’ gem has just the right dimensions to anchor a medium-sized living room, brighten a den, or inject personality into a home office.

Meshkin rugs have a reputation for their durable construction and tribal character, and this piece certainly ticks both boxes. If you’re seeking a vintage Persian rug with unforgettable color contrasts and a dash of folklore, this Meshkin might just be your new statement piece.

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!
