Antique Persian Veramin – Unique 7×15 Odd Size Rug
7×15 Odd Size Rug, Hand Knotted Antique Persian Veramin Rug
This 7×15 odd size rug is a striking example of antique Persian craftsmanship, woven in the renowned weaving center of Veramin, just south of Tehran. Veramin rugs are celebrated for their intricate allover patterns, geometric precision, and strong use of natural vegetable dyes, and this piece is a prime representation of that artistry.
The field is dyed in a rich navy-blue tone, creating a bold backdrop for its repeating floral and geometric motifs. Accents of rust, brown, ivory-beige, black, and green interlace harmoniously throughout the design, producing a dynamic yet balanced composition. The allover pattern flows seamlessly across the rug’s oversized proportions, a feature that makes old Veramin rugs highly collectible among connoisseurs of Persian weaving.
Adding to its charm, the wide beige border features a continuous chain of stylized geometric forms that frame the interior with both rhythm and contrast. This interplay between the dark field and the lighter border enhances the rug’s presence, making it a dramatic yet sophisticated piece for larger interiors.
Hand-knotted from 100% wool pile on a cotton foundation, this oversized rug reflects the durability and longevity for which Persian rugs are known. Despite its age, it remains in excellent condition, with its colors well preserved and its structure strong. Its size—7×15 feet—is especially rare and makes it an ideal choice for long corridors, gallery halls, wide foyers, or grand entryways where standard rug sizes simply do not suffice.
This antique Persian Veramin rug is more than a functional floor covering; it is a cultural heirloom that embodies centuries of Persian artistic heritage. The unusual dimensions, paired with its exquisite design, elevate it to the level of a true collector’s piece. For anyone seeking odd size rug that is not only decorative but also historically significant and uniquely proportioned, this 7×15 odd size rug offers a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic work of art. The actual rug size is 7 x 15.4.
