For shoppers comparing 3x5 Persian rugs, it is a compact piece with a bold, graphic center that reads clearly from across a room.
Design and Motifs
A navy hexagonal medallion anchors the field, its stepped outline drawn in the angular, tribal manner that village weavers favor. Ivory corner panels frame the red ground at all 4 corners and echo the medallion's geometry, so the layout feels balanced without becoming rigid.
Red, Navy and Ivory
Red carries the field, warmed by touches of dark salmon, while the navy blue medallion gives the rug its strongest contrast. Ivory and beige in the corner panels brighten the composition and set off the darker tones. Dark purple, dark green, brown, light brown and black appear in the outlines, borders and smaller motifs, adding depth and definition to every edge of the design.
Hamedan Village Weaving
The Hamedan region of western Persia is home to hundreds of weaving villages, and Persian Hamedan rugs are known for sturdy wool, practical sizes and confident geometric drawing. This 3'3" x 5'1" piece carries that village character in its hexagon medallion and red field, a durable size for an entry, a bedside or a spot beside a reading chair.
