Rugeast
Since 1921
This antique Kashan rug depicts Reza Shah Pahlavi in a rare hand-knotted portrait format — a prestige commission from the early Pahlavi era that serious collectors actively hunt for.
The sage-green oval medallion, deep madder-crimson field, and scrolling arabesque borders give it a richness that reads beautifully in a real room.
Lay it in a living room or study and the crimson field and steel-blue borders do the work — grounding furniture, adding genuine warmth underfoot, and lending the kind of depth that a printed rug simply cannot fake.
Wool pile breathes, resists dirt naturally, and softens further with age — which is why RugEast stands behind every piece in its Antique Rugs & Carpets range as a lasting investment for the home.
