Lovely rug, approximately 5x7 feet, from Zanjan province in Persia. This village-made rug features a large hexagon medallion in the center that extends to both ends, along with a smaller geometric medallion with a blue/purple/lavender background. The red field color, combined with other hues like light blue, dark blue, purple, and various shades of red, creates a vibrant harmony and gives this rug a distinct tribal character.
It displays an abundance of nomadic and ancient motifs, including flowers in various forms, while the border showcases attractive geometric leaf scrolls. This rug is of high quality and in very good condition. It can be used in a bedroom, living room, or dining room. With its relatively thick and soft pile, walking on it is a pleasure. I hope you like it.
