This 9'7 x 12'6 Patina Persian Kashan Rug is a true piece of history, showcasing the timeless artistry of one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving centers. Kashan rugs are known for their rich color palettes, balanced compositions, and traditional medallion motifs and this piece is no exception. Its aged patina, developed through decades of natural wear, gives the rug a warm, lived-in character that collectors and vintage enthusiasts appreciate. Because of its visible worn areas, it is offered at a highly discounted price of $695, making it an accessible entry into genuine Persian craftsmanship.
Design & Motifs
The rug features a classic Kashan medallion: a deep navy and ivory center surrounded by floral arabesques, palmettes, and curling vinery that radiates across the red field. Every inch of the design is filled with traditional Persian blossoms roses, lotus shapes, and stylized leaves woven in rhythmic symmetry. The multi-layered borders frame the rug with alternating floral bands, creating a sense of depth and structure typical of old-world Kashan weavers.
Patterns
This rug showcases an all-over floral pattern surrounding the central medallion. Small-scale motifs are densely packed, a signature of high-quality Kashan weaving, creating a tapestry-like effect. The intricate outlines in navy blue give contrast and definition, while the golden yellow highlights brighten the composition.

-
Ivory & cream tones: Used in floral detailing, highlights, and smaller border bands.
-
Golden yellow: Accents the floral motifs beautifully, adding brightness and a sense of movement.

Patina (Worn Areas)
This rug has visible wear, known as patina, where pile has thinned or faded, giving a sun-washed, naturally aged surface. These areas do not affect its structural integrity; instead, they give the rug the charming character that only decades of life can produce. Because of this patina, the rug is available at a significantly reduced price.
