How to break up the space, “horror vacui” as the Italians say.
When we were last there, in 2018, we visited the mausoleum of the Biblical figures Esther and Mordechai who had escaped from the Babylonians over the wild mountain corridors of the Zagros range, where this Persian Bakhtiari Rug originates. It is a resounding call of tradition, a masterpiece of texture and tone that reflects the life and movement of the Bakhtiari tribe. Proudly offered by The Rug Shop, this rug is a perfect embodiment of strength and artistry, built to last yet yet impishly agile.
The Bakhtiari tribe/nation of the Zagros Mountains celebrate craftsmanship and enduring strength. This rug is thickly knotted of robust sheep wool, its dense pile designed for a lifetime of use. The dyes—both vegetal and mineral—combine in strong contrasts to create a visual impact that is unmistakably Persian and unmistakably powerful.
