An antique handwoven Tehran rug, a distinctive and refined creation that rises from the heart of Iran’s capital—Tehran, a city with a singular place in the history of carpet art. This valuable piece is adorned with an all-over design that masterfully blankets the entire field with exceptional grandeur, reflecting the precision and finesse of Tehran’s artisans. The field presents a lively, multicolored palette, reminiscent of classical Iranian painting, paired with elegant animal motifs that symbolize life, movement, and vitality. Arranged in a regular, harmonious manner across the field, these figures evoke narratives from Iran’s timeless, nature-inspired imagination. Premium wool, combined with a sturdy thread warp, lends outstanding quality and durability. Its very fine weaving shows a density of about 5,100 knots/dm², allowing every motif to appear with heightened clarity and definition. A light blue border frames the composition with a gentle, poetic calm. The rectangular dimensions are 130 × 210 cm (4'3" × 6'11"), and the area is 2.73 m² (29.39 ft²), making it a discerning choice for luxurious, artistic interiors. With its special splendor and beauty, this antique Tehran rug stands as a prominent emblem of authentic Iranian artistry, bringing a unique, historical presence to refined spaces.
