Persian Bakhtiary Rug - 3.16x2.02 classicBakhtiar carpets are made of strong and sturdy wool.

They are knotted from thick wool, which reduces their deterioration. It is not as fine and soft as the cork wool of other Persian carpets, but it has a clear advantage in its resistance to everyday stress. Bakhtiar
