Persian Meymeh Rug | 5' 7" x 8' 6"

Fine Meymeh Rug with Indigo Medallion

A refined village weave with a soft, sun-kissed palette and beautifully disciplined drawing.

This Meymeh has that balance I always love in a fine village rug: crisp geometry, delicate spacing, and a palette that feels gentle rather than loud.

The field reads as a warm salmon-coral with a soft peachy cast, mellowed by age and light in the nicest way. At the center sits a deep indigo diamond medallion, sharply stepped and filled with small floral forms, which gives the whole composition a strong visual anchor without overwhelming the field. Around it, the surface is scattered with tidy rosettes, flowering sprigs, stylized plant forms, and small geometric devices that feel almost like a floral lattice broken into individual motifs. The navy main border frames everything beautifully, while touches of powder blue, sky blue, ivory, taupe, and muted brown keep the drawing lively and refined.

What makes this rug especially appealing is its clarity. Meymeh rugs often have a neat, orderly elegance, and this one really shows that quality. The knotting is fine, so the motifs read with precision, and the sun-kissed field gives it a softened, decorative warmth that makes it easy to place.

At 6x9ish ft it works beautifully in a living room, sitting room, home office, or bedroom, especially under a coffee table or at the foot of a bed. It would also look lovely in a dining space where you want something with character but not too much visual weight. 

If you are drawn to Persian rugs that feel detailed, luminous, and quietly sophisticated, this is a very easy piece to live with.
