Antique Handmade Persian Hamedan Rug – 200 × 130 cm (6 ft 7 in × 4 ft 3 in)
Traditional Medallion Design • Fine Lamb’s Wool • Authentic Old Colours • Professionally Hand Washed
This characterful antique handmade Persian Hamedan rug is a traditional village weaving dating from approximately 60–70 years ago. It features a bold central medallion surrounded by angular geometric motifs and stylised tribal details.
Measuring 200 × 130 cm (approximately 6 ft 7 in × 4 ft 3 in), it is a versatile size suitable for a living room, bedroom, study, entrance hall, fireside area or beneath a coffee table.
The rug has a warm brick-red and coral field, contrasted by a striking charcoal-black central section. The stepped outlines and medallion are highlighted with ivory, terracotta, soft grey, muted blue, olive green and touches of golden yellow. These naturally softened colours give the rug warmth, depth and genuine antique character.
Hand knotted from fine lamb’s wool on a cotton foundation, the rug has a low pile consistent with its age. It remains in good antique condition and offers the attractive, lived-in appearance valued in older village rugs.
The rug has been professionally hand washed and is clean, fresh and ready for immediate use or display.
