Handcrafted from premium wool pile, this carpet offers exceptional softness, natural resilience, and impressive durability. The dense wool construction provides a luxurious texture underfoot while ensuring the rug remains beautiful and functional for generations.
The carpet is woven on a strong cotton foundation, providing excellent structural stability and maintaining its shape over time. Professional leather reinforcement along the back edges adds additional protection, helping prevent curling and preserving the integrity of this valuable handmade piece.
Measuring 9.10 × 6.7 feet, this vintage Bakhtiari medallion carpet is perfectly suited for elegant residential interiors, luxury hotels, galleries, collector spaces, and prestigious offices.
