What Are Hunting Rugs?

Hunting rugs are a distinct group of Persian and Oriental rugs that portray scenes of hunters, animals, and other motifs from nature, and occasionally mythic figures. These rugs, which originate in Persia (modern-day Iran), depict royal hunts-symbolic of courage, royalty and man’s relationship with nature. Typically, hunting rugs are hand-knotted with wool or silk as a true work of art, making them ideal for art collectors and home decor fanatics alike.

Every rug is a story, thousands of them, with detailed illustrations of horses, lions, deer, birds and archers, frequently set against a rich forest or garden background. These carpets aren’t just floors — they’re tapestries, woven from the medium of history and Persian folklore.
