{"product_id":"blue-antique-rug-hand-knotted-no-at38673","title":"Blue Persian Oriental Rug 5'0\" x 8'0\" Hand-Knotted | No. AT38673","description":"\u003cp\u003eLilian weaving carries a character that only decades of use and careful keeping can produce , this hand-knotted rug shows a geometric field rendered in deep indigo and softer blue tones, the colors gently mellowed by age into a palette that feels settled and assured. The repeating geometric pattern holds a rhythm common to village work from the Azerbaijan region of western Iran, where borders and central fields interact with confident simplicity. The pile, though worn to the patina of an antique, retains the lanolin density of quality wool, giving the surface a quiet sheen rather than a flat appearance. Blue tones shift subtly across the field depending on light, which keeps the composition visually alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLilian rugs belong to the broader Persian village tradition, woven by settled craftspeople whose geometric vocabulary draws from Caucasian and northwest Iranian influences. The wool used in antique Lilian pieces was hand-spun and dyed with natural colorants, which accounts for the way blues in aged examples retain depth without harshness. This age and origin combine to produce a rug that will continue to hold structurally for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/alrug.com\/collections\/oriental-rugs\"\u003ehand-knotted Oriental rugs\u003c\/a\u003e, Lilian pieces suit reading rooms, studies, and traditionally furnished living spaces where the geometric structure can anchor seating arrangements without competing with other patterns.
