Early 1900s 10×13 Persian Shiraz Hand-Knotted Area Rug

This early 1900s Persian Shiraz hand-knotted area rug features a striking red field filled with tribal geometric motifs, stylized animals, and a central medallion framed by richly detailed borders. Woven by artisans in southern Iran, Shiraz rugs are celebrated for their bold folk-art character, durable wool construction, and centuries-old weaving traditions. With its beautifully aged patina and authentic wear—an effect modern rugs try to imitate but rarely achieve—this rug represents a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of Persian craftsmanship and history that brings warmth, character, and timeless authenticity to any space.
