Originating from the Persian region, specifically crafted by the Bakhtiari tribes, this antique Bakhtiari rug from circa 1920 is a fine example of tribal weaving artistry. The rug exhibits a rust-colored background with a vivid blue border, providing a striking contrast that highlights the intricate red motifs throughout the rug.
The Bakhtiari carpets are well-known for their blend of nomadic tribal motifs and influences from urban design, setting them apart from other Persian rugs that typically favor singular styles. This particular rug showcases a dense and symmetrical pattern consisting of hexagonal and diamond shapes, each filled with floral and botanical motifs. The designs within these shapes include stylized flowers, leaves, and branching patterns, contributing to the overall complex and detailed appearance of the rug.
The predominant hues in this rug are deep reds, blues, pinks, and creams. The striking red and blue shades are used prominently to create a strong visual contrast, while the pinks and creams add variation and softness to the design. This combination of colors enhances the rug's rich and sophisticated look.
Encircling the rug are multiple borders that contribute to its detailed and elaborate appearance. The outermost border is wide and features a detailed vine and floral design in cream and brown colors, followed by a narrower border with geometric and linear patterns in red and blue. An innermost cream-colored border further frames the central pattern, enhancing its intricate detailing.
The rug is symmetrical both horizontally and vertically, creating a balanced and harmonious visual effect that is typical of Bakhtiari designs. The pattern is very dense, with minimal empty space, making the rug visually engaging and rich in detail. Instead of featuring a single central medallion, this rug employs a repeating pattern where each hexagon or diamond shape forms part of a series of medallions, presenting a continuous and interconnected design.
Crafted from wool on a cotton foundation, this rug reflects the durability and high-quality materials used by the Bakhtiari weavers. The use of natural dyeing techniques is evident in the rich and vibrant colors that have endured over the decades.
Overall, this circa 1920 Bakhtiari rug is a compelling representation of Persian tribal artistry, showcasing the resilience and intricate craftsmanship of the Bakhtiari people. It remains a significant piece within the tradition of Persian rug weaving, notable for its historical value and detailed design.
