Gorgeous Small Rustic Tribal Minimalist Paisley Motif Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug, Country of origin: Persian Rugs, Circa date: 1880Antique Persian Bakshaish rugs are loved for their gorgeous colors, design, and softness. The area is close to the city of Tabriz, and this one is a beautiful way to add tribal charm to your home or office space. The brilliant red of this small scatter size area rug makes a striking appearance and will brighten your room and give it vibrancy.

This year, even minimalists are adding color to their neutral color schemes. Red is becoming a color that is more prominent in our decor schemes than it was in the past. You no longer need to use it sparingly and can splash it on your walls and window treatments as much as you like. This beautiful, unique rug is a smaller size and could be used as a scatter rug or mounted and hung on the wall as a unique piece of artwork.

Many of the late 19th century rugs created around the weaving centers of Tabriz have a more formal feel. These antique Persian rugs use many of the same motifs, only they tend to have a more hand-drawn, primitive feel. This rug uses the paisley boteh motif in the corners of the field. This is an ancient symbol that stands for the eternal flame that was kept burning in Zoroastrian temples. In some areas, it is also known as the seed of life.

The symbol typically appears in a more rounded form that closely resembles the modern paisley pattern. This unusual rectangular rendition gives the tribal rug a unique feel. Another addition that you do not typically see is the representation at the bottom of the symbol that looks like the roots of a seedling beginning to emerge. This might be to suggest the concept of new beginnings or growth in abundance.

The antique Persian Heriz, Serapi and Bakshaish rugs have added their charm to spaces for many years, and this one will transform any room into one that is warm and cozy. Antique rugs like this would make a perfect combination with a red velvet sofa with a curved back or in a space that layers on the texture. It is a charming piece that will help you create a space where you love to spend your time.
