Description
This antique Zanjan rug was hand-knotted in northwest Iran around 1920. Rugs from this region are known for strong village designs and durable wool, made entirely from the weaver’s memory rather than a drawn plan.
The rug features four bold medallions set on a deep blue field. Floral side panels in soft grey add balance, while a cream geometric border frames the design and gives structure. Natural colour variation in the wool shows its age and authenticity.
Made from high-quality wool, this rug has a firm handle and good weight, suitable for everyday use in a sitting room or bedroom. Its size makes it ideal for smaller spaces where a genuine antique piece is wanted without overpowering the room.
A well-preserved village rug with clear design, honest wear, and strong character.

What Our Customers Say About Us?
Everything was perfect - very nice selection of fine and authentic kilims (my interest), shipment to Germany was super fast, contact very friendly. When there was a problem with the mail for one purchase i was constantly informed. And finally also this piece arrived in very good shape.
Robert
A Thoroughly excellent service. Mehdi was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He brought 7 rugs to our home so that we could see them in situ which made the whole process so much easier.
Would definitely recommend Sharif & Co if you are after a carpet or rug.
Nigel Gordon
Friendly and helpful advice without any sales push. I’ve bought two items from this dealer which is quite unusual. I’m very happy with what I bought and would again buy from him. I watch his web site to see what new items come in.
Mr Paul Ackland
As ever, a very kindly, helpful visit by Mehdi Sharafi himself, with all the three pieces I was choosing from. His expertise is always a pleasure to witness! And the item I bought is superb. Payment and the website couldn’t be easier. MANY THANKS!
Mr Last
I was extremely surprised at how quickly the rug arrived, less than 24 hours. The item was exactly as described and pictured. Thank you very much.
Jenny T.
I bought a Heidarian rug online from Sharafi & Co. Their communications were excellent, they arranged delivery very swiftly, and I'm really delighted with the rug, it's beautiful.
