The hand-knotted wool pile exhibits the characteristic tribal density and rich texture sought after in textiles from this region.

The field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, placing it among the most desirable blue color rugs of the period.

The composition centers on a bold, stepped medallion rendered in warm gold and deep red, surrounded by highly stylized figures and stars. The overall aesthetic is defined by its powerful geometric rugs structure, which is perfectly contained within the narrow format of this Small Scatter Size Rugs (3.06ft x 4.1ft).

The strong, angular borders—featuring diagonal stripes and stylized butterfly motifs—frame the central design with precision. This piece stands as a superb example among antique rugs, offering both historical significance and a vibrant, timeless decorative presence for the discerning collector. See less
