{"product_id":"lightgold-handknotted-wool-aor21242","title":"Light Gold 7x10'8\" Meimeh Diamond Plush Pile Medallion Tribal Village Vegetable Dyes Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug","description":"In excellent vintage condition and ready for everyday use, this hand knotted wool Persian Meimeh rug from Iran beautifully represents the geometric lattice weaving tradition that has long defined the Meimeh villages of central Iran. The warm light gold field is divided into repeating diagonal diamond panels filled with stylized floral motifs, tribal geometric forms, and decorative botanical accents in rich shades of red, navy, teal, aqua, pink, and turquoise. At the center sits a larger stepped diamond medallion rendered in deep red with a navy floral interior that naturally integrates into the surrounding lattice rather than interrupting the repeating geometric structure. Toward the lower field, the gold background gradually deepens into warmer red tones while the lattice pattern continues uninterrupted, creating subtle tonal movement and added visual warmth across the composition. The wool pile is thick, dense, and evenly woven, giving the rug excellent clarity of detail together with a luxurious texture underfoot. Natural vegetable dyes create softness within the gold field while enhancing the richness of the navy and teal accents with remarkable tonal depth and authenticity. Combining tribal Persian artistry with strong geometric balance, this vintage Meimeh rug offers timeless handcrafted beauty ideal for both classic and transitional interiors.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 7x10'8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Light Gold, Ivory, Red, Navy, Teal, Aqua, Pink, Turquoise, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Iran\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.75 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Pre-Owned \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: Vintage in mint condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: AOR21242\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Meimeh rugs are woven in the historic village of Meimeh located in central Iran’s Isfahan province, a region celebrated for blending tribal Persian weaving traditions with refined decorative artistry. Their signature feature is the repeating geometric lattice pattern that extends across the entire field, filled with stylized botanical motifs, floral forms, birds, and symbolic tribal imagery arranged in dense harmonious compositions. A stepped diamond medallion often anchors the center while remaining fully integrated into the surrounding lattice structure, creating remarkable balance and architectural rhythm. Rich tones of burgundy, navy, ivory, teal, and sage give these rugs a warm decorative depth enhanced by naturally dyed wool and plush hand-knotted construction. Combining durable craftsmanship with timeless Persian tribal elegance, Meimeh rugs continue to be highly prized for both their artistic individuality and decorative versatility.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Oriental Rug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50700480643292,"sku":"AOR21242","price":2499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/1996\/6684\/files\/A21242_20aor.jpg?v=1779878459","url":"https:\/\/americanorientalrug.com\/products\/lightgold-handknotted-wool-aor21242","provider":"americanorientalrug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
