Antique Bakhtiar Farahan Wool 196x130

Bakhtiar Nomadic Rug – Tribal Craftsmanship from Iran

Bakhtiar rugs have their origins in the Bakhtiyari region of western Iran, a striking mountainous area that is home to the nomadic Bakhtiar tribes. Their traditions and artistry are deeply rooted in history. Since the 16th century, Bakhtiar rugs have not only embodied cultural identity but have also played an important role in international trade, boosted by the trade routes between Persia and Europe.

Materials and Craftsmanship

The creation of these unique rugs demands exceptional skill and craftsmanship. The wool is sourced from regional sheep, carefully cleaned, and dyed with natural colorants. Thanks to an average knot density of 120,000 to 300,000 knots per square meter, these rugs are especially durable and robust.

Durability and Versatility

Bakhtiar rugs are renowned for their remarkable longevity, a result of high-quality materials and precise manufacturing. The wool used is not only soft but also hard-wearing, making these rugs ideal for high-traffic areas. With diverse designs—from geometric patterns to floral motifs—Bakhtiar rugs seamlessly complement both modern and classic interiors. They can serve as a striking focal point in minimalist spaces or blend beautifully with traditional furniture, always lending style and creating a welcoming, inviting atmosphere.

Who is this Bakhtiar Rug for?

Bakhtiar rugs are perfect for those who value style and cultural heritage. They are especially suitable for families seeking a long-lasting, easy-care rug to withstand the demands of everyday life.
