Design and Color Palette:
The rug's field is filled with an intricate network of hexagons, diamonds, and other geometric shapes, reminiscent of intricate latticework or honeycomb patterns. This design, often referred to as the "Lattice" or "Honeycomb" pattern, is a hallmark of Bakhtiari rug weaving and symbolizes interconnectedness and community. The bold color palette features rich reds, deep blues, ivory, and accents of green and gold, creating a harmonious blend that is both vibrant and balanced. The border frames the central design with a complementary pattern, often featuring stylized flowers or geometric elements.  
Materials and Construction:
This Bakhtiari rug is crafted from high-quality wool, known for its durability, resilience, and natural luster. The wool fibers are hand-spun and dyed using traditional methods, resulting in rich, saturated colors that will retain their beauty for generations. The rug's foundation is wool, providing a sturdy and flexible base for the intricate knotting. The high knot density is a testament to the weaver's skill and ensures the rug's longevity.

Bakhtiari rugs are woven by nomadic tribes in the Zagros Mountains of southwestern Persia. These rugs are known for their bold geometric and floral patterns, vibrant colors, and durable construction, reflecting the Bakhtiari people's close connection to nature and their nomadic lifestyle. This particular rug likely dates back to the mid-20th century, representing a period of exceptional artistry in Bakhtiari rug weaving.
