About Bakhshaish Rugs

Bakhshaish rugs are among the most collectible antique village weavings of northwest Persia, often predating or paralleling the classic Heriz tradition. They are known for abstract, spacious geometric designs, gentle abrash color shifts, and soft vegetable-dyed palettes of camel, rust, and faded blue. Each hand-knotted piece carries an artistic, almost primitive elegance that designers and collectors prize. Their individuality and scarcity make antique Bakhshaish carpets some of the most sought-after one-of-a-kind rugs in the market.

This is a genuine one-of-a-kind piece — no two hand-knotted rugs are exactly alike, and the slight variations in dye lot, pile height, and knotting you see here are part of what gives an authentic piece its character. It is well suited to a dining room or smaller living room, where its individuality can be appreciated up close. As with all hand-knotted carpets, gentle rotation every year or two helps it wear evenly over time.
