Lot 690: A machine-made Oriental style area rug in a Bakhtiari panel design
This large area rug features a traditional Khesti or garden panel design, with the central field organised into a grid of rectangular compartments. Each panel contains varied motifs including stylized floral sprays, geometric medallions, and tree forms. The design is framed by a broad, deep terracotta-red border decorated with a repeating scrolling floral and vine pattern. The colour palette consists of earthy tones including brick red, cream, ochre, mustard yellow, and dark brown. The rug is constructed with a dense pile, likely of wool-blend or synthetic fibres, and is finished with a knotted cream fringe at both ends. A modern retail price label of £69.00 is adhered to the reverse of the rug.
Dimensions: Not measured.
Condition report:
The rug is in good overall condition with evidence of light domestic use. There is minor fraying to the ends of the knotted fringe and slight flattening of the pile consistent with occasional treading.
