    Multi Sizes LoomBloom Dual Surface Felt & Rubber Non-Slip Backing Rug Pad

Vintage and in excellent condition, this hand knotted Bakhtiari wool runner from western Iran comes to market professionally cleaned, restored, and completely ready to use, which puts it in a category that genuinely narrows the field for buyers looking for a long piece they can lay down immediately. The entire rust red field is covered in a repeating all-over pattern of geometric tribal forms in navy, tan, gold, turquoise, and blush, with stylized pictorial elements including abstracted animal and human figures woven into the repeat, a characteristic of Bakhtiari tribal work that gives the design a folk art quality distinct from the more formal city rug traditions. The pattern runs consistently across the full length of the runner with no central medallion interrupting it, so the composition holds equally well from any viewing angle and at any point along its length. A tan and navy border carries a complementary geometric repeat that frames the field cleanly on both sides without competing with the busy interior. Vegetable dyes give the rust ground and navy accents a warmth and depth that has settled evenly across the piece over decades of age.

Story Behind the Art: Bakhtiari rugs, handwoven by the Bakhtiari tribes of western Iran, are celebrated for their strength, vivid artistry, and enduring cultural symbolism. Crafted from the tribe’s own resilient wool, these rugs are known for their robust construction and generous pile, ensuring lasting durability. Their signature design is the khesti or garden pattern, where the field is divided into panels filled with trees, flowers, birds, and other motifs that evoke the beauty of a Persian garden. Other variations feature bold central medallions and geometric motifs, all expressed in a vibrant palette of deep reds, indigos, ivory, and earthy greens. Striking in presence yet rooted in tradition, Bakhtiari rugs embody both tribal spirit and classical Persian elegance, making them prized decorative pieces and highly collectible works of art.
