This antique handwoven rug is a distinguished example of rural weaving from the Zanjan region, preserving its visual authenticity and structural strength even after nearly four decades. Measuring 199 × 130 cm with a surface area of 2.59 square meters, it offers balanced proportions suitable for living rooms, home offices, or warm and intimate interiors. The rectangular structure with a weaving density of 30 raj introduces a notable geometric order to the overall composition, while the central corner-and-central medallion, formed with carefully broken motifs, establishes a steady rhythm across the entire field. The deep navy-blue ground creates visual depth and dignity, and when paired with the madder-red border, results in a dynamic and striking contrast. The use of natural wool pile alongside cotton warp and weft provides durability and good structural stability, while the approximate weight of 11 kg reflects the rug’s solid craftsmanship and reliable performance for everyday use. This rug is an excellent choice for those who appreciate authentic geometric designs and enduring rural textiles.
