The Lion

Collection:

A striking vintage 1990s Persian pictorial rug featuring a bold stylized lion rendered in deep espresso brown against a warm ivory field. Hand-knotted in wool, this 2′ x 3’3″ tribal animal carpet showcases the graphic clarity and symbolic storytelling associated with Persian folk and nomadic weaving traditions. The lion, a symbol of strength, protection, and royalty in Persian art, appears with angular, almost architectural lines, dotted detailing, and a decorative collar, giving the piece a distinctly character-rich presence.
