Hamadan rug, early 20th century

Measurements: 138cm x 78cm (4’6 x 2’7)

72 Knots per inch

Price: £120

An inexpensive little Hamadan from northern Iran. These pieces are robust with cotton warps and wefts, they tend to lie flat and can bear areas of heavy traffic. This is by no means a collectors item but it is an antique rug and has some charm with its deep blue field holding three bold rosettes flanked by serrated leaves and floral motifs.

Condition:

The sides are a little damaged and the ends have some loss particularly at the corners.
