Antique Bakhtiar Rug, 133 X 207 Cm, Hand-knotted Wool In Iran, First Part Of The 20th Century

This old Bakthiar measures 133 cm x 207 cm, is in very good condition and has very fresh colors for its age, around 1920,1930.
This carpet originates from the region of Chahar Mahal (Shotour) in Iran formerly Persia.
It is a Bakthiar with a central medallion and two large pendentives, very different from the usual square or rectangle structures spread over the entire field.
The cut-out medallion features a large flower and large leaves resting on a flowered wine-colored field.
The field is made up of large, stylized, colorful, knotted flowers with a very large application of symmetry.
To note The work of the border.
This type of Bakthiar rug remains a so-called nomadic rug style.
This carpet, in fact, is particularly neat in its decoration and presents a certain transition between the nomadic carpet and the carpet of the cities. These rugs are very resistant, knotted with very good quality wool from the mountains, it will withstand the footsteps of a whole family for a long time. Despite their name and unlike different types of rugs, the Bakthiar are not knotted by members of the Bakthiar tribe, the Bakhtiaris, but by another population that is now sedentary.
The Chahar Mahal region produces the Bakthiar carpet but also the less known Yalame, more recent in manufacture but of very good reputation. Fringes short on one end and long on the other, edges in very good condition and shiny, clean velvet.
This rug has been professionally and environmentally cleaned.
