The carpet is beautifully woven in a luxurious palette of deep terracotta red, midnight navy blue, soft rose pink, and crisp ivory. These harmonious colors create warmth, depth, and elegant contrast while highlighting the remarkable detail of every woven motif.

Hand-knotted from premium hand-spun wool, the dense pile delivers exceptional softness, natural warmth, and outstanding durability. The high-quality wool retains its vibrant colors and luxurious texture for generations, making this rug an ideal heirloom piece for everyday living or private collections.

Built upon a strong cotton foundation, the carpet offers excellent structural stability and maintains its beautiful form over decades of use. The impressive knot density reflects the expertise of Persian master weavers, producing sharp pattern definition and refined craftsmanship visible from both the front and reverse sides.

Measuring 9.2 × 6.8 feet, this authentic Persian Bakhtiari carpet is perfectly suited for living rooms, formal dining areas, executive offices, libraries, boutique hotels, galleries, and luxury residences.
