Antique Khamseh botteh Signed and Dated 31636

This Antique Khamseh, measuring 5'3" x 6'7", is a beautifully crafted example of traditional Persian weaving. Predominantly woven by artisans who speak Persian Azeri and Arabic, Khamseh rugs share similarities in construction with their Qashqai neighbors. While both styles are known for their bold, geometric patterns and vibrant colors, Khamseh rugs are often distinguished by their use of dark wool wefts, in contrast to the lighter tan or white warps commonly found in Qashqai rugs. This subtle difference in construction gives the Antique Khamseh a distinct, rich depth and warmth, making it a standout piece in any collection.

The Antique Khamseh in 5'3" x 6'7" is an exceptional example of the artistry and craftsmanship of the Khamseh tribe. Its intricate design and deep, earthy tones make it an ideal addition to any home, whether placed in a living room, entryway, or hallway. The strong, durable weave ensures that this rug will continue to stand the test of time, while its cultural significance adds a layer of historical richness to any space.
