Persian Hamadan

£425£525In stock, ready to ship

A vibrant, beautifully proportioned Persian Hamadan hand-knotted in western Iran — a region celebrated for generations of robust, colourful weaving. This piece stands out with its rich, glowing deep red field brought alive by a scattering of distinctive medallions and stylised floral motifs across the centre, each detailed with navy, rust orange, soft rose, and warm ivory. Woven from wonderfully soft, premium wool, the pile feels truly luxurious underfoot — dense and silky yet resilient, set upon a strong, reliable cotton foundation that keeps the rug flat, stable, and built to hold its shape beautifully through years of daily use. The multi-layer border is rich with traditional repeating patterns that frame the field perfectly, adding depth and authentic village character from every angle. At 145 × 105 cm, this is a beautifully versatile size — ideal for a hallway, bedside, study desk, or as a warm welcoming accent in a living room. The rich reds and earthy tones complement wood furniture, classic interiors, and modern neutral schemes alike — an honest, durable piece of Persian craftsmanship that brings instant warmth and colour to any space.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 120 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 283,186 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 5 months.

How that is worked out: 57 in × 41 in × 120 knots per sq. in. ≈ 283,186 — that is 145 × 105 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
