Mashahir Antique Persian Kerman Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rug, Circa Date: 1900. Size: 7 ft 1 in x 10 ft 6 in (2.16 m x 3.2 m) Through the skillful use of highlighting and outlining, this Kerman rug stands out in its strong colors and lines.

The members of the throng seem to be discussing matters between themselves, but ultimately the flow of movement leads the viewer’s eyes upward, where a man at the topmost center of the antique rug’s core is reading out from written tablets. This regal antique Persian Mashahir rug pays homage to the great leaders of the Persian Empire. Mashahir is a word that translates into “nobleman.” Throughout this antique rug, one can see the history of the Persian Empire and its leaders.

This is an exquisite piece for its level of detail, and it holds a special place in the hearts of the Persian Empire. Although this is not a traditional mihrab, the columns and gabled roof form a structure that signifies a temple or special place. This is supported by the symbol of the crown and sword at the peak of the structure and the two lion and sun symbols...
