Over a century of life and it exudes old world charm.
Hand knotted in Persia in the early 1900s, this soulful antique scatter rug is woven with hand-spun, vegetable-dyed wool and showcases a wonderfully small-scale repeating design. Its soft coral, faded brick, maroon, a pop of yellow, dusty denim blue, navy, hunter green, warm ivory, sky blue and more mellowed beautifully over time, creating the relaxed palette that makes old Persian rugs feel so effortless in today's interiors.
This piece has developed a naturally timeworn character that lends itself beautifully to farmhouse, cottage, English country, shabby chic, collected, and layered interiors. It has the kind of presence that instantly grounds a room with warmth, soul, and history without ever feeling heavy. If you have a new build, this piece will be perfection to hold a space down with age old warmth and authentic history.
Over the course of its lifetime, some worn areas were professionally rewoven to preserve the rug for generations to come. These thoughtful restorations are part of its story and allow it to continue being enjoyed as a functional antique and can be admired for the love it received, and that we can cherish.
The weave remains supple and you can truly feel the old beauty and soul.
If you're drawn to interiors that feel collected rather than decorated, this little Persian has all the ingredients: beautiful age, softened colors, love-worn wear, and the kind of character that cannot be reproduced. A custom cut rug pad will be sent on the house to keep it nice and snug as well. Thanks for shopping small and check out the little video clip of this rug below.
