South west persia,last quarter 19th century. Probably woven by the basseri tribe of the khamseh confederacy. Nothing particularly special about your average khamseh pecking chicken rug,indeed there were many thousands made with the pecking chickens design and not a lot else features in many of them. This example you could say is one of those examples except as usual the devil is within the details when one observes more closely. To the centre are two pairs of zoomorphic certainly geometric peacocks made in a very unusual form which I haven''t encountered on many khamseh''s. Down each side within the dark brown/black field colour are eight boldly designed peacocks woven in beautiful green and electric blue colours with superb fan tails and geometric crests to their heads along with rosettes,combs,tribal devices and of course the pecking chickens! The overall palette of this rug is very subtle and earthy with greens,yellow and blues. Hand washed and de-dusted. All ends and sides secure. Low even pile. There has been a repair to bottom end edge,hardly noticeable with a hessian patch to the rear. Be that as it may it hardly matters in context to the scarcity of the overall design which is what makes this rug such a treat to own. 5 foot 10 inches by 4 foot 11 inches. 179cm X 152cm. Being not far off square as earlier ones are. All woollen construction. Free world posting. Bank transfers,viewings,discussions,etc all possible. Many more rarer south west persian tribal rugs for sale. Ofx 355.
