Hailing from the region of Malayer, nestled within the Hamadan district of Persia, this gorgeous antique 1920s Persian rug will bring a lot of personality to any space it will live in. This gem is more than just a floor covering; it's a piece of living history that encapsulates the artistry of a time long gone.
The rich color palette harmoniously blends to create a wonderful tapestry of colors. Three regal medallions take center stage, each encircled by intricate, stylized motifs of the revered tree of life. This ancient symbol represents immortality and the profound connection between earth and heaven. Against a deep navy blue backdrop, the rug's main field also showcases small animal motifs that add an extra layer of charm.
The decorative border bands elegantly frame this treasure, enhancing its visual impact. Crafted with enduring quality in mind, this rug boasts impressive heaviness and durability that can endure the test of time. Handwoven with the finest vegetable-dyed wool, it has gracefully aged for over a century and still has centuries more to go to grace a home with its presence and bring a welcoming spirit.
