Persian Hamadan

£495£595In stock, ready to ship

A genuine hand-knotted Persian Hamadan from western Iran — a region celebrated for centuries of robust, characterful weaving. This piece features a striking central diamond medallion set against a rich madder-red field, beautifully balanced with ivory, cream, and soft earth-tone accents throughout. Woven entirely from premium soft wool, the pile has a wonderfully dense, luxurious feel underfoot — plush yet resilient, offering both comfort and lasting durability. The design blends bold geometric forms with delicate stylised floral motifs — the signature look of Hamadan village weaving — framed by an intricate multi-layer border that adds depth and symmetry from every angle. At a beautifully versatile size, this rug brings warmth, heritage, and timeless character to hallways, bedrooms, studies, or living spaces. The deep reds and warm neutrals complement wood furnishings, classic interiors, and modern schemes alike — an honest, durable piece of Persian craftsmanship built to be enjoyed for generations.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 140 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 325,501 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 5 months.

How that is worked out: 59 in × 39 in × 140 knots per sq. in. ≈ 325,501 — that is 150 × 100 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.
