Antique Bakhshayesh Carpet 490x347cm

This exceptional Bakhshayesh carpet stands out as a rare and decorative example of Northwest Persian weaving, known for its unusual designs and rich color palettes. Originating from the village of Bakhshayesh, these carpets are prized for their artistic individuality and cultural depth—and this piece is no exception.

The blue field features an eye-catching all-over pattern of large bush motifs, each rendered with rhythmic symmetry. These are neatly separated by rows of small light brown lozenges, creating an engaging visual cadence that’s both orderly and dynamic.

Framing the composition is a broad geometric light brown border, which echoes tribal design traditions while adding structure and bold contrast to the field. This interplay of soft and earthy tones makes the piece highly adaptable to a range of interiors—from rustic to modern eclectic.

Woven with natural dyed wool, the rug exudes warmth, durability, and character. Its rare layout and color harmony make it not only a functional floor piece but also a collector’s delight.
