Bakhtiari Antique,
This 5'3" × 8'3" Bakhtiari Antique rug is a Persian hand-knotted wool carpet with a bold tribal character and a strong traditional presence. The design features a powerful central medallion surrounded by angular floral and geometric motifs, creating a balanced composition with energy and movement. Deep navy, rich red, ivory, rust, soft blue, green, gold, and muted earth tones give the rug warmth, contrast, and authentic antique charm.
The artwork of this rug feels both structured and expressive. The dark central field gives depth to the design, while the ivory border brightens the composition and frames the rug beautifully. The motifs have a strong village-weaving quality, with stylized flowers, angular vines, and symbolic forms arranged in a way that feels handmade, personal, and full of life. Its 5' × 8' size makes it ideal for a living room, bedroom, study, entryway, library, or sitting area where a traditional rug can add warmth and character.
Bakhtiari rugs originate from the Bakhtiari people of western Persia, especially the Chahar Mahal and Bakhtiari region. These rugs are admired for their durable wool, strong construction, and expressive designs inspired by nature, gardens, tribal life, and Persian decorative tradition. Antique Bakhtiari rugs often combine bold geometry with floral detail, giving them a distinctive balance of strength, beauty, and cultural identity.
Hand-knotted from wool, this rug offers natural warmth, texture, and long-lasting durability. More than simply a floor covering, this Bakhtiari Antique rug brings Persian heritage, antique character, and timeless handmade craftsmanship into the home.

Commission Your Own
This piece is one of a kind — but the artisans who wove it can create a new rug in its spirit, hand-knotted to your exact dimensions.
Every hand-knotted rug begins with a single knot.
Skilled artisans tie each knot entirely by hand, one at a time, using techniques that
have been passed down through generations. Depending on the size and intricacy of
the design, a room-sized rug may contain millions of individually tied knots.
For a single weaver, completing one masterpiece can take one to two years—or even
longer—making every rug a remarkable work of art, craftsmanship, and patience.

Questions About This Rug
How do I care for a hand-knotted rug?
Vacuum regularly without a beater bar, rotate the rug once or twice a year so it wears evenly, and blot spills immediately rather than rubbing them. We offer professional cleaning and restoration in-house whenever it needs more than that.
How is a rug this size delivered?
Shipping is free to the West Coast and typically arrives in 1–3 days. We ship nationwide and internationally on request — reach out and we'll get you a quote for your location.
Does this rug come with an authenticity certificate?
Yes. Every rug we sell ships with a certificate recording its origin, materials, construction and dimensions, so you have documentation of exactly what you own.
What if it isn't right for the room?
[DRAFT — CONFIRM WITH BABAK] Placeholder to match the trust badges: 10-day money-back guarantee on online orders, and a 3-month exchange or store credit window. Confirm before launch.
