Persian Bakhtiari rugs are in fact tribal pieces that rely upon a repertoire of abstract geometric and animal motifs. But Bakhtiari weavers are also acclaimed for their ability to produce sophisticated all-over medallion designs and garden designs of classical Persian inspiration, with an added vitality and boldness provided by muted tones. This particular piece features an all-over design of diamond-shaped motifs rendered in tones of red, tan, light green, cream and taupe.
