This Bakhtiari Gabbeh is a true treasure of Persian textile artistry, celebrated for its refined simplicity, symbolic motifs, and rich use of color. Hand-knotted with great care, it reflects the deep artistic heritage of the Bakhtiari people—renowned for their expressive, decorative carpets that blend function with cultural storytelling.

The rug’s deep red background radiates warmth and creates an inviting visual depth, serving as the perfect backdrop for its intricate and balanced design. At the center lies a bold lozenge-shaped medallion in dark blue and orange, carefully woven to reflect traditional Persian geometry while drawing the viewer’s eye with its clarity and contrast.

Crowning the medallion is a central flower head, subtly integrated to add an element of organic elegance. The blue spandrels that flank the main field are filled with playful floral elements, each featuring graceful stems and intricate detailing—evoking the charm of a Persian garden.

The composition is beautifully framed by a narrow jagged border, introducing a dynamic texture that contrasts with the more structured medallion. A secondary main border, more understated in size, ties the whole piece together with understated harmony, accentuating the rug’s intricate details without overpowering them.

This Bakhtiari Gabbeh is ideal for collectors and designers alike, offering a perfect blend of visual intrigue, cultural heritage, and interior versatility. Whether used as a focal point in a living room or as a statement piece in a more intimate space, it brings depth, color, and soul to any setting.
