Small Persian Rug 3x4 – Ivory and Red Hand-Knotted Wool Vintage Malayer Hamadan Rug
About this Malayer Rug
This charming vintage Malayer rug, measuring approximately 3x4, features a captivating Tree of Life design framed by a vibrant palette of deep reds, ivory, and earthy taupes. Its stylized tree motif blooms upward in symmetrical form, with angular boteh-like branches and saturated floral details that appear almost architectural. The stepped ivory field and multi-tiered vases suggest symbolic growth and abundance, while the finely drawn outer border adds rhythmic balance with repeating rosette and cross motifs. A rug of this scale and quality offers a rich decorative impact, ideal for small spaces, entryways, or as a wall hanging.
About Malayer Rugs
Malayer rugs are handwoven in the region between Hamadan and Sarouk in northwestern Iran. These pieces are known for their rich diversity of design and often display floral, geometric, or medallion-based layouts. Malayer weavers employed a high degree of artistic freedom, producing village-style pieces that range from whimsical to deeply refined. Their wool is typically soft yet durable, and the weaving often reveals an expressive, individualistic hand. Rugs from Malayer are widely sought after for their combination of rustic charm and nuanced artistry.
