11963 Handknotted Shahsavan Hamadan Rug 131x200cm (4.3½ x 6.6½ft)

Rustic vintage oriental Persian hand-knotted Shahsavan Rug from the Hamadan region - a genuine rug which is handmade and hand-knotted in wool. These rugs are usually woven with hand spun wool pile with cotton warps giving a good strong and robust rug that will last for many years. This traditional vintage Shahsavan Hamadan Rug measures approximately 131x200cm (4.3½ x 6.6½ft) excluding any tassels - we love the pretty washed out red/pinks and blues and the bolder, more out of the ordinary design in this lovely rustic handmade rug. We also love the way the background colour changes throughout the rug, this is common in handmade rugs and is called Abrash. See more about Rug Motifs, Symbols & Meaning here.​

These authentic Persian carpets come from the villages within the greater Hamadan area of north west Persia and typically have geometric designs but occasionally will have an all over pattern.
