Persian Hamadan Village Rug
Stock No: PE-232-001665
Size(m): 3.65×1.55
This is an extraordinarily beautiful handmade carpet from the Hamadan village in Persia, in modern-day Iran. Measuring 3.65 meters by 1.55 meters, this carpet features a stunning central medallion design adorned with floral motifs scattered throughout the field.
The base color of the field is a very dark blue, almost black, providing a dramatic backdrop for the vibrant floral designs.
Floral Motifs: The flowers, all depicted in full bloom, are accompanied by leaves, creating a rich foliate and floral tapestry. This combination suggests a depiction of the Tree of Life, a significant motif in Persian symbolism representing the conduit between heaven and earth, symbolizing the flow of blessings from the divine.
Central Medallion:
- At the heart of the central medallion is a flower, with stems extending in the four cardinal directions—north, east, south, and west—each bearing additional flowers.
- Surrounding this central motif is another expanding medallion in a light tan color, also adorned with flowers, creating a layered effect reminiscent of Russian nesting dolls.
Additional Motifs:
- North-South Extensions: The medallion elongates with stylized floral extensions resembling vases.
- East-West Extensions: Floral motifs that connect with the north-south extensions, creating a harmonious and continuous design.
- Satellite Motifs: The pendants or drops from the central medallion appear as satellites, moving throughout the field like wreaths of flowers, enhancing the overall elegance.
Borders:
- The carpet features an elongated stadium pattern with exquisite borders that echo the colors found in the central medallion.
- The main guard border shares the light base color of the central medallion, tying the design together beautifully.
Placement and Appeal:
- With its dimensions of 3.65 meters by 1.55 meters, this carpet is ideally suited for a grand hallway or entryway, where its intricate design and vibrant colors can be fully appreciated.
Purchase this magnificent Hamadan carpet with complete confidence, knowing it will make a stunning addition to any grand space, bringing with it the rich heritage and beauty of Persian artistry.
For a classic living layout, place the rug in the centre of the room and place the front legs of your sofa and armchairs on the rug. This will help create a better aesthetic and cleaner appearance.
For those who don’t want a large rug but still want a warm underfoot when getting out of bed, we recommend a round or runner rug to place at either side of the bed.
For high traffic, spill-risk areas like the dining area, we recommend a low-pile rug and easy-to-clean material like polypropylene for a rug.
