Hand-Knotted Reproduction Persian Bakshaish Rug – Antique Revival with Modern Integrity
The Bakshaish rug originates from the Bakshaish village in northwest Persia and is revered as one of the most artistic and free-form expressions in the world of antique Persian rugs. Traditionally crafted in the 19th century, Bakshaish carpets are known for their tribal character, spacious geometric motifs, and earthy yet vibrant color palettes. Their asymmetry and dynamic patterns often convey a rustic charm combined with bold creativity, making each piece an actual work of folk art.
This exquisite reproduction captures the essence of an antique Bakshaish rug, preserving its authenticity and cultural richness. The design features a striking central medallion flanked by organic, stylized motifs and a lively border imbued with symbolic forms, natural elements, and subtle imperfections that mirror the hand of the original weaver. The soft abrash and gentle aging effect are achieved through time-honored techniques, ensuring a genuine antique aesthetic.
Our Bakshaish reproduction rugs are handcrafted in the same region where the originals were born, staying faithful to centuries-old techniques. We use 100% hand-spun wool and natural vegetable dyes, providing visual depth and a luxurious, tactile finish. Every knot is tied by seasoned artisans who have inherited their skills through generations, reflecting an intimate knowledge of traditional Persian weaving.
Each rug is produced with meticulous attention to detail, from the selection of wool to the precision of the weaving and the gradual finishing process. We tailor our rugs to accommodate bespoke sizes, colors, and design alterations, offering custom solutions for designers and architects who seek heirloom-quality craftsmanship with modern flexibility.
We are a heritage-driven rug atelier with decades of experience specializing in creating and customizing high-end hand-knotted rugs. Our expertise lies in preserving historical rug artistry while meeting the evolving demands of today’s interiors.
