The Bakhtiar design comes from the tribal weaving traditions of the Bakhtiari people of western Iran. The compartmentalised field design, where each panel holds a different floral or botanical motif, creates a garden-like composition that rewards close attention. Pakistani weavers produce this tradition in wool pile with silk highlights on cotton, and the Bakhtiar remains consistently popular because of its warmth, variety and approachability.
The tan and ivory ground of this medium piece at 4 ft 7 in x 7 ft 3 in is warm and light. The burgundy border provides definition without heaviness. The silk highlights trace the floral motifs across the panel compartments, adding a subtle luminosity that shifts with the available light. The size makes it well suited to a bedroom, compact sitting room or as an accent in a larger space.
In your home: Works in master bedrooms, small sitting rooms and dining rooms. Pairs with neutral walls and warm timber. The ivory ground suits rooms that need lightening without losing warmth.
