Red And Blue Color Large Size Antique Tribal Bakhtiari Carpet, Persia, Circa 1900 — This bold antique Persian Bakhtiari rug demonstrates the use of multiple colors, patterns, and concepts traditional to Persian weaving. A dominant focus is found in the central medallion in the middle of the carpet. Blues and reds provide energy and life to the piece and provide a nice pop to minimal negative space. A variety of patterns and botanical accents work cohesively to make the rug one entity. This antique rug is daring and active, and fabulously dynamic.
