Vintage Persian-Style Floral Rug – Hand-Knotted Wool

Description
This hand-knotted wool rug presents a traditional floral medallion layout characteristic of Persian workshop production, rendered in a dense pattern of navy, red, soft beige, and green tones. The surface shows tight, consistent knotting with clearly defined motifs, indicating skilled craftsmanship. Floral sprays, scrolling vines, and a central lobed medallion form a balanced composition framed by multiple decorative borders. The palette combines a deep navy ground with warm red and beige accents, giving the piece strong visual contrast while maintaining a classic, symmetrical structure. The fringe appears intact and evenly spaced.
