Rare Antique Farahan Rug From Central Iran
Only 1 in stock
The design is distinctly reminiscent of a traditional Giordes rug, with a central aqua green field beautifully populated by whimsical stylized animals and delicate floral motifs, rendered with striking finesse. Yet the carpet is woven using the Persian knot (asymmetrical)—a hallmark of Farahan craftsmanship—making this a true hybrid in both design and technique.
Multiple intricate borders surround the central field, offering a structured, layered frame that enhances its complexity. The abrash—those subtle tonal shifts throughout the field—adds depth and authenticity, reflecting the use of natural dyes and the artistry of the weaver’s hand.
While there is a visible repair, it has been completed with expertise and does not detract from the overall aesthetic. The selvages have been professionally rebound to ensure durability, and the even wear across the pile is consistent with its age and genuine vintage character.
Whether viewed as a conversation piece, a decorative gem, or a collector’s treasure, this rug exemplifies unconventional beauty, mystery, and exceptional craftsmanship—a one-of-a-kind addition to any interior.
