562. an enchanting antique Bachtiari Persian rug

562. Provenance: Bachtiari tribes, Western Persia

Size: 210 x 130 cm

Age: Circa 1920

Condition: Largely good with minor areas of lower pile.

Notes: Really stunning natural colours in this sparkling antique or near-antique piece. A panel garden design featurning a wealth of flowers and trees (cyrpess, willow etc.). Also, and usually, there are classical 'botehs' (teardrop motifs, the predecessors of the Paisley pattern), but here shown as plant forms. Remarkable! A rug to lift your spirits each time you look at it.
