Burjesta carpets come from the tribal weaving tradition of western Iran. Woven in wool on a wool base, they are made without a drawn design, the pattern held in memory and knotted directly onto the loom. The constructions are honest and the character is genuine. This piece has a combination of knotted pile and flatweave sections, which is characteristic of the Burjesta tradition and gives the carpet a texture and surface quality that fully knotted pieces do not have.
The beige and ivory ground at 5 ft 1 in x 6 ft 4 in is calm and easy to place. The curvilinear geometric pattern adds visual interest without imposing a strong colour direction. Wool on wool construction is dense and durable, wearing well with age.
In your home: Works in sitting rooms, bedrooms and studies. The neutral palette suits rooms with strong colour elsewhere. Pairs with natural timber, linen and organic materials.
