This distressed vintage Persian rug was hand-knotted in Tabriz, Iran in the 1970s and selected for its shaved wool texture, pale neutral palette, and authentic vintage character. Its lower pile creates a softly aged surface with fine Persian patterning across the rug.
The design features ivory, beige, taupe, muted brown, grey, soft gold, and faded charcoal details. The all-over floral pattern and subtle central layout appear gently through the worn surface, giving the rug a calm antique-style look with low contrast. With its 282 x 355 cm size, this rug works beautifully in large living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, or neutral open interiors.
Distressed vintage Persian rugs are known for their faded colour, softened vintage texture, worn pattern detail, and aged decorative charm. This vintage piece has been professionally washed, cleaned, and restored, making it ready to use while preserving its aged colour, texture, and one-of-a-kind character.
