This antique handwoven carpet, approximately 40 years old, is a distinguished example of rural weaving from the Zanjan region, featuring the authentic Hupa design, which has preserved its local identity and traditional structure. Measuring 244 × 141 cm with an approximate area of 3.45 square meters, it is well suited for the main living spaces of a home. A density of 30 raj reflects a reliable weave and careful execution of the geometric Lachak–Toranj motifs, whose ordered structure conveys a sense of stability and visual coherence. The deep navy-blue field combined with a blue border creates a calm yet profound contrast that has retained its appeal over time. The use of natural wool pile with cotton warp and weft, together with an approximate weight of 14 kg, provides a balanced and dependable structure suitable for everyday use, making this carpet a lasting and practical choice.
