Yalameh carpets come from the tribal regions of southern Iran. The tradition is relatively little known outside specialist circles, which makes these pieces genuinely interesting to collectors. The bold geometric pattern vocabulary and the wool on wool construction give Yalameh carpets a character and durability that is distinct from the more widely known tribal traditions of the same region.
The blue ground at 6 ft 10 in x 9 ft 6 in is unusual and arresting. Most Yalameh carpets use red or multicolour palettes, which makes a blue ground piece relatively uncommon. At this large format the piece anchors a full sitting room or dining area. Wool on wool at 144 knots per square inch gives the construction real solidity.
In your home: Works as the main floor piece in a sitting room, bedroom or study. The blue ground pairs with cream walls, natural timber and both classic and contemporary interiors.
