Description
Antique hand-knotted rug from the Nahavand region of western Iran, featuring a complex geometric-medallion composition set within an angular, stepped field. The central medallion is multi-lobed with strong red and blue accents, surrounded by an intricate arrangement of tribal motifs, including stylized plants, small architectural elements, and symbolic figures. The dark field contrasts with lighter spandrels in camel and ivory tones, enhancing the layered structure of the design. The main border displays a bold geometric pattern with repeating motifs, framed by multiple guard borders. The color palette includes deep navy, red, ivory, camel, and light blue. Wool pile on cotton foundation. Circa early 20th century.
