Persian Village Wool Rug, Circa 1920, 2.29m X 1.35m (7'6 X 4'4)

Woven in the Hamadan region of West Persia in the early 20th century, this finely made village rug displays many charming and decorative characteristics. The handspun wool pile is soft and durable, and has a very nice even texture. The colours are composed of natural dyes and have been combined in a very daring manner to create eye-catching combinations. The design is bold and quite archaic, as one would expect from a weaver with such a long tradition to draw one, but has been expertly executed. combinations of diamonds and other geometric ornaments have been arranged on a grey field in bright colours which gives a three dimensional feel to the design. Note also the butterfly type ornaments in the sapphire blue spandrels. This is also framed by a generously wide ivory border with a pretty floral pattern. All very charming. The rug has survived in very good condition and has recently been professionally cleaned.
