Antique Persian Rug, 5x9
Couldn't load pickup availability
With its bold medallion and directional geometry, this antique Persian rug serves as more than a floor covering—it’s a navigational anchor. Aptly named Desert Compass, the piece blends tribal artistry with a grounded elegance, guiding the eye (and the soul) through its intricate design.
Woven by hand in the Hamedan region of Persia, this wool-on-cotton rug showcases a rich palette of earthy reds, midnight blues, and sun-warmed neutrals—tones that feel at home in both rustic interiors and more curated, modern spaces.
We’ve freshly washed the rug and restored the edges in our studio. It carries a bit of wear and light moth damage from decades past, now fully treated to preserve its structure and integrity for years to come.
Desert Compass invites stillness and story, whether laid in an entryway, study, or bedroom. It’s a reminder that even in the quietest corners, there’s direction waiting to be found.

RETURNS
I want you to see the rugs in your home to make sure you like them. In case you don't like them for any reason, I offer an easy return policy.
The 'grace period' for returns depends on how you bought the rugs -
- If you ordered with shipping, without seeing the rug in person first, you get a 30 day return grace period. The 30 day grace period begins when the rug arrives at your address.
- If you picked up the rug from me locally, without shipping, you get a 7 day return grace period. The 7 day grace period begins when you pick up the rug.
You may ship the rug back to me, or drop it off locally by appointment. I will issue a refund for the purchase price, provided that I receive the returned rug within the grace period explained above.
All shipping fees are non-refundable.
I will expect to receive the returned rug in the same condition that I sent it to you. Please make sure that the rug is dry, not damp or wet. Please do not apply any adhesive tape to the front or back of the rug. I will assess any damage on a case-by-case basis, and subtract the value of the damage from your refund.
