This vintage 3x5 Persian rug is a Gabbeh rug that originates from the Qashqai tribe—hand-knotted in wool circa 1950-1960.
Its design hosts a variety of primitivist geometric patterns—floral motifs in the field and stars in the red border. Though polychromatic, its colorway favors vibrant hues with a variation that lends a gorgeous sense of movement underfoot.
Pieces like this represent the work of nomadic weavers that favor classic designs and cozy pile with limitless design applications today. Fewer pieces might boast this one’s sheer variety of colors and motifs, though, and the way they lend a more modern sense of life and joy to such archaic motifs. It’s a personal piece with a comfortable texture and presence that can brighten any space it calls home.
This mid-century Persian tribal rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It’s ready for the floor, and is equally ideal in wall-hanging projects, too.
