Couldn't load pickup availability
A serene tale woven in wool. This exceptional antique Kerman rug is a masterwork of Persian weaving — a hand-knotted treasure from the storied workshops of southern Iran. Its central motif, the Tree of Life, has long been a powerful symbol of growth, continuity, and interconnectedness, inviting warmth, history, and meaning into any home.
Crafted with reverence — lived with love. Generations ago, skilled artisans poured months of labor into each knot, using high-quality wool and a time-honored technique that gives this rug its depth, resilience, and unmistakable texture. Subtle variations in tone — known as abrash — speak to its handmade authenticity and the natural beauty that only true antique Persian rugs possess. The rug shows some wear, and one small discolored spot. See the pics and video for more info.
A palette shaped by time. The rug’s soft, earthy palette blends warm neutrals, gentle clays, and muted blues into an elegant harmony. Over decades, age has mellowed these tones into something quietly rich — a patina that complements both classic and contemporary interiors alike.
Presence you can feel. Generously sized at approximately 9′ × 11′ (105×138″), “Tree of Life Sanctuary” isn’t merely a floor covering — it’s a defining element of your space, anchoring living rooms, libraries, galleries, or open plan interiors with graceful scale and textured character.
