Embrace the soulful patina of early 20th-century Persian artistry with this authentic Hamadan rug.

Hand-knotted in the 1920s, this vibrant wool rug showcases a classic geometric diamond medallion set against a rich, saturated madder-red field. The deep navy blue spandrels and slate-blue borders are intricately filled with traditional tribal motifs and stylized floral rosettes, characteristic of the village weaving traditions near the city of Hamadan.

This piece features a distinctive "low pile" and distressed condition that lends it a sought-after antique aesthetic. The natural wear and visible foundation in certain areas create a beautiful, aged texture that tells a century-long story. These variations in the pile height and the gentle fading of the organic dyes (abrash) provide a depth and "shabby chic" charm that makes it an excellent choice for a rustic farmhouse, a bohemian study, or a high-contrast modern loft.

With its sturdy wool construction and timeless tribal geometry, this rug is both a durable floor covering and a genuine piece of Persian history.
