Story Behind the Art: Woven in villages across the Hamadan province of western Iran, Malayer rugs are known for their blend of rustic charm and decorative artistry. Hand-knotted with resilient local wool, often dyed with natural pigments, these rugs showcase earthy palettes of rust, indigo, cream, and terracotta. Their designs vary from striking central medallions to repeating allover patterns filled with geometric or floral elements. Unlike formal city carpets, Malayer rugs highlight the individuality of village craftsmanship, with subtle variations and irregularities adding to their character. Valued for both durability and unique charm, they remain timeless collectibles for traditional and modern interiors.
