This handmade vintage tribal Persian Bakhtiari rug has a Four Seasons design with floral, animal, tree and garden motifs and a unique and colorful palette with charming details. This sturdy fine quality tribal rug has an even low pile that can withstand high traffic and will continue to last for generations. The Four Seasons design is a checkerboard pattern in which each square represents one of the four seasons.  In this rug, the squares resemble windows to the garden, with views of the changing seasons through the trees, animals and flowers.  The colors are made from only natural dyes and they lean toward rich shades of orange, yellow and green, a unique color way for rugs from this region.  Sea green, pale peach, lavender, orange, golden yellow, cherry red, midnight blue, copper, coral, royal blue, white and countless other delightful shades harmonize beautifully in this pictorial rug.  Trees, exotic birds, flowers, leaves, and even a giraffe! are complemented by other geometric patterns that fill every corner of the rug. The deep cherry red frame has a colorful garland of flowers on the vine that perfectly complements the rug and incorporates all of its beautiful colors.  You can get lost in the details. This rug shifts in color from one end to the other, a natural variation in dyes known as abrash, which is what makes this rug "distressed".  It adds to the one of a kind handmade nature of this special oriental rug.  Size: 6'x9'9"
