8x12 Vintage Hand-Knotted Rug - 47686

A wool pile over a cotton foundation forms this 50–70-year-old Persian rug, whose principal pattern language is medallion. Its principal visual language is medallion, creating a specific product identity rather than a generic vintage look.

A clearly defined medallion anchors the center, while the border helps contain and balance the surrounding motifs.

In the main image, the palette reads as soft beige and muted earth tones, accompanied by a heavily softened, low-contrast pattern. The reduced contrast between field, motifs and border creates a calm vintage surface rather than the crisp look of a newly woven carpet.

The actual dimensions are approximately 255 x 362 cm, corresponding to the marketed 8x12 format. The proportions suit living, dining or bedroom settings where the rug can define a furniture arrangement while leaving part of the border visible. A cotton foundation supports the hand-knotted wool pile, giving the rug structural stability while preserving its softened vintage surface.

Minor shifts in color, pile and pattern alignment are natural in an older hand-knotted textile and help distinguish this one-of-a-kind piece.

Professionally washed and in excellent condition, this one-of-a-kind vintage Persian rug is ready to use.
