Persian Gholtogh Rugs

Ask ten rug dealers about Gholtogh and most will admit they have never had one in stock. These rugs come from a small cluster of Kurdish villages between Bijar and Zanjan, woven in modest numbers and rarely exported in bulk, which makes this one of the few pages online where you can actually compare several at once. The look is unmistakable: bold stepped and hooked medallions in deep madder red and indigo, drawn with the confident geometry Kurdish weavers are loved for. Every Gholtogh on this page is hand-knotted, one-of-a-kind, and photographed exactly as it will arrive.

For buyers, the appeal is character plus construction at a friendly price. Gholtogh weavers share blood and technique with their famous neighbors in Bijar, and it shows in the handle: firm, tight, heavy for its size, a rug made for entries, hallways, dens and offices where lesser weaving wears out. Most pieces run small to mid-size, which puts an authentic, genuinely uncommon Persian rug within reach of almost any budget on our site.

If the sturdy Kurdish school appeals to you, the deep end of it is one page away: Persian Bijar rugs are the tradition at full strength, and our complete guide to Bijar rugs explains what makes these weaves outlast everything around them. Want to see how a particular Gholtogh feels in hand? Call or chat any hour and we will walk the pile with you on camera. Free shipping and free returns, all 50 states and Canada.
