This semi-antique Melayer rug originates from the Hamadan region of Iran, handwoven with wool on a cotton foundation using traditional methods. Spanning 5'7" x 13'4", it has been thoughtfully distressed and refinished in the United States to enhance its character and contemporary appeal. Persian rugs represent a cornerstone of Iranian artistic and cultural heritage, with weaving traditions extending back to antiquity during the Bronze Age. The most significant surviving examples emerged during the Safavid dynasty in the 16th century, establishing aesthetic and technical standards that continue to define Persian rug excellence. This piece embodies that enduring legacy of mastery and cultural significance.
