The Design Story

bakhtiari, iran (c.1960)

Design Story
A simple geometric grid design characterizes this circa 1960 antique Bakhtiari Khersak rug from Iran's Zagros mountains. The entire field consists of rectangular blocks of solid colour arranged in a checkerboard pattern, covering the whole surface. These blocks display a wide range of colours such as red, red oxide, yellow, green, blue, black, and white, often with natural colour variations typical of the rustic Khersak style. The bold grid pattern extends directly to the simple finished edges of the rug.

City Story
Bakhtiari tribe rugs from southwestern Iran are hand-knotted and vividly convey diverse narratives. Iconic designs include the Khesti (garden panel) with compartmentalized nature motifs, and medallion-with-corner layouts. Other symbolic patterns like Tree of Life, vase, geometric, and Herati (fish) motifs represent themes of eternity, abundance, interconnectedness, ancestral heritage, and good fortune. These rugs feature a durable wool pile, typically on a cotton foundation, and are made with the Turkish knot, ensuring strength and hard-wearing quality. Their weaving techniques reflect both nomadic and settled traditions. Bakhtiari rugs display a rich, varied, and bold color palette, often using natural dyes, with prominent reds, blues, greens, and yellows enhancing their distinctive character.
