This grand 10 x 21 ft antique Persian Bibikabad rug showcases the elegance and scale of palace-sized weaving. The rug is anchored by a semi-open ivory field that highlights an elongated floral medallion, framed by expansive floral corner spandrels. Its refined balance of soft and saturated tones—ranging from blush and blue to deeper rose and navy—adds a layered richness. The detailed borders are filled with classic floral motifs and multiple guard bands, underscoring the harmony and symmetry that define Bibikabad artistry. Ideal for anchoring a formal space or a grand entryway, this rug brings historic craftsmanship and visual serenity at scale.
About Hamadan Rugs
Hamadan rugs originate from a prolific weaving region in western Persia, encompassing numerous villages known for their distinctive rug styles. Bibikabad is one such village, recognized for producing finely woven rugs often larger in size, featuring central medallions and densely patterned fields. These rugs typically use durable wool on a cotton foundation and are appreciated for their durability and decorative versatility. While Hamadan rugs can vary widely in design, Bibikabad pieces tend to stand out for their structured elegance and often expansive dimensions, making them especially desirable among collectors of room-size and palace-size Persian carpets.
