This antique handmade rug, approximately 40 years old, is a distinguished example of rural weaving from the Hamedan region, offering both authentic design and solid structural strength. Measuring 219 × 148 cm with a total area of 3.25 square meters, it is a practical and visually striking choice for medium to large living spaces. Its rectangular structure, combined with a 30-raj weave, creates a balanced harmony between design delicacy and durability, reflecting the craftsmanship of local weavers. An approximate weight of 13 kg, based on an average of 4 kg per square meter, indicates appropriate density and high-quality materials. The wool pile together with cotton warp and weft provides a pleasant sense of warmth and softness while maintaining durability. The geometric corner-medallion (Lachak-Toranj) design on a red (lak) background creates a powerful and classic visual presence, while the brown border adds a dignified and authentic color harmony. Uniform chemical dyeing contributes to color stability and long-term durability.
