Handmade Persian Rug

Authentic Persian Turkman Rug – Hand-Knotted Wool with Traditional “Elephant Foot” Motif

This beautiful hand-knotted Persian Turkman rug originates from Turkman Sahra in the northeast of Iran, a region known for its rich tribal weaving traditions and distinctive geometric designs.

A characteristic feature of rugs from this area is the traditional “camel foot” motif, inspired by the importance of camels in the daily life and culture of the Turkman people. Within this motif, one can often see stylized forms that resemble birds reflected inside the camel footprint, adding symbolic meaning and visual depth to the design. Because a similar motif is also widely used in rugs from India and Pakistan, it is commonly referred to as the “elephant foot” pattern, the name by which it is best known in the West.

The rug is made from 100% pure wool, making it durable, hardwearing, and long-lasting, while also providing a warm and comfortable texture.

This rug is brand new and imported by Heaven on Earth Imports. A copy of the Certificate of Origin issued by the Chamber of Commerce is provided to assure buyers that this piece is an authentic Persian handmade rug.

With its traditional tribal motif, strong wool construction, and cultural heritage, this Persian Turkman rug is both a beautiful decorative piece and a durable rug suitable for everyday use.
