A field of madder red, worn beautifully.
A large vintage hand-knotted Abadeh carpet from Fars Province, south-west Iran. A geometric central medallion anchors an expansive madder-red field, densely patterned with traditional motifs, stylised animals, and four corner medallions, all held within multiple patterned borders.
Decades of use have mellowed the palette into something no dye could replicate – faded madder red, dusty rose, charcoal, muted green, cream, and touches of ochre. Wear to the edges and fringes only adds to it; this is a carpet with a history, not an imitation of one.
At 323cm x 227cm, it's built for a room that can hold it – a large sitting room, dining room, or bedroom.
