This over-dyed vintage Persian rug was hand-knotted in the 1970s and has spent decades in beautiful homes, becoming part of many lived stories along the way. With age, the rug was carefully shaved down to a low pile and over-dyed in teal colour, giving it authentic vintage character. Its shaved surface gives the rug a relaxed distressed look while keeping traces of the original Persian design visible.
The design features blue-green, teal, turquoise, faded navy, and soft worn highlights with a visible central medallion and softened traditional border. The cool colour palette gives the rug a calm but distinctive appearance, making it suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, dining spaces, or layered modern interiors. With its 175 x 275 cm size, it works beautifully as a medium-large statement rug.
Over-dyed vintage Persian rugs are known for their softened vintage texture, aged pattern detail, and modern colour treatment over traditional handmade designs. 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.
