About: Some of the most RECOGNIZABLE of all the Persian carpets is, none other than, the Persian Bakhtiari. These weavers have jokingly been called "show-offs" in the rug weaving world because of just how robust and never-ending the beauty, skill, and workmanship of their pieces are. You will get LOST in this Alice in Wonderland piece - every color in the crayon box, botanical gardens growing in front of your eyes, and the symbolism of the great Willow and Cypress Tree frames the piece in the Border. What else can you ask for? Oh, you want it to last a lifetime? Be able to handle traffic and commotion? FINE. This piece is also Bullet Proof - high-quality wool tightly knotted around a sound foundation makes it tougher than nails but softer than a cloud. Off to my good friends in Texas, they are going to LOVE IT!

This rug is one-of-a-kind, only one available.

Because of the nature and age of these older/antique handmade pieces, irregularities and age-related wear are likely to exist and are not considered defects.

Any questions about this rug? Don't hesitate to reach out!

We always recommend a high-quality custom cut pad for any and all rugs; these pads are made for hand-knotted rugs. They create a body and support the knots of the rug, as well as prevent it from slipping and sliding.

A note from us to you: Buying a rug is special; it's not just you finding the rug, but also the rug finding you. Think about the many coincidences that have to occur for you to find the rug of your dreams. Our rugs are woven by nomads in the villages and remote mountainous regions of the major rug weaving districts across the world. All of our rugs are genuinely old and one-of-a-kind. Like anything old and unique, they are filled with character, soul, and story. The story of a rug is something we think about a lot; who was the weaver(s)? Did they weave it for personal use, commerce, to gift, or trade? Who was the second owner, and the third!? Sometimes the little motifs and symbols in rugs can help tell the story, but we will never truly know - there's something beautiful about that. Alas, our joy is to curate these incredible pieces that speak to us, and to pass them along to their new owners to be enjoyed and cherished for many years to come; both continuing to add to the story of the rug, and to the story of the new owners.
