HOT ! Antique Persian Shiraz Handmade Distressed Rug 3.1\' x 4.2\' 1900s - 1C1219

Antique 1900s Persian Shiraz Rug - Diamond Medallion 3.1\' x 4.2\'

This captivating antique Persian Shiraz rug, dating from the turn of the 20th century, is a soulful testament to the nomadic weaving traditions of South Persia. The deep, oxblood-red field is centered by two primary diamond medallions featuring archaic hooked \"S\" motifs and geometric tribal symbols. The composition is energized by a densely packed field of smaller nomadic ornaments, stars, and protective \"eye\" motifs, all rendered in a warm palette of terracotta, midnight blue, and soft cream.

Having survived over a century, this piece displays a beautiful distressed character and an authentic antique patina. The hand-spun wool pile has worn down significantly in areas, creating a low, textured surface that reveals the rug\'s intricate foundation and adds a sense of weathered history. This rugged, \"wabi-sabi\" aesthetic makes it an exceptional choice for collectors and designers looking to ground a modern interior with an authentic piece of tribal art.
