Beautiful Antique Persian Bakshaish Rug, Country Of Origin: Persia, Circa date: 1880 – It has a central medallion, formal corners, and a complex border. However, the design of this carpet is not as precisely executed as carpets created in the cities. This is part of its appeal. The symbols used throughout the carpet include the bird, which symbolizes joy and happiness, and the amulet, which is used to thwart the evil eye. The symbols reflect the mystique and character of the people who created it.
