Seeking something muted and truly made to last? This Persian rug, woven by Afshar nomads circa 1920, fits the bill. The field moves in a calm rhythm of stepped diamonds and scattered star flowers, a gentle cadence that draws the eye without demanding the room. Borders with tribal leaves and latch-hook motifs guide the flow, so the design feels steady and grounded rather than busy.
The handle is weighted and confident, with low pile wool on a sturdy cotton foundation. A compound wash has softened its dyes to a quiet patina, a piece that completes a space rather than competes with it. Easy to style, endlessly soothing, and full of old-world soul, the structure is solid and ready for real life. Subdued, simple, tribal.
Ends and sides are fully secured. Low pile, heavy and durable. Also, clean as a whistle.
