An antique Persian carpet fills the frame edge to edge, its bold octagonal medallion glowing oxblood-red and gold against a charcoal-black core. Curling palmettes and split-leaf arabesques radiate across a sun-faded tan-gold field, softened by the patina of age. The mood is warm, storied, and heirloom — quiet opulence worn gently by time. It anchors a living room or reading nook with lived-in Old World warmth.

The medallion carpet reached its height in Safavid Persia during the 16th and 17th centuries, when royal workshops in Tabriz, Isfahan, and Kashan wove masterpieces for the courts of shahs such as Tahmasp I. A central medallion ringed by palmettes and arabesques symbolized a heavenly garden — an earthly paradise underfoot — while cloudbands and split-leaf rumi scrolls carried the ornamental language of the wider Islamic world. Such carpets became among the most coveted furnishings in Old World Europe, prized in Spanish and Mediterranean estates where they layered warmth and color across stone floors. This print distills that woven inheritance into a single framed field, faded and softened as though passed down through generations.

Our Story

Atrecho Art began with an obsession: the art that lines the walls of old European estates — the devotional portraits found in the side chapels of Seville’s cathedral. We are a family-owned small business bringing that spirit home, one print at a time. Thank you for supporting independent art.
