About the Item
74573 Vintage Persian Mahal Rug, 10’09 x 13’03. Rich in artistry and cultural significance, this vintage Persian Mahal rug is a striking example of masterful craftsmanship and sophisticated design. Hand-knotted from fine wool, the Persian rug’s intricate composition reflects the time-honored weaving traditions of the Mahal region. At its heart, a prominent diamond medallion in a deep midnight hue emerges from the lush red field, its stepped edges and geometric intricacy evoking the architectural splendor of Persian design. The medallion is flanked by corner spandrels, mirroring its deep contrast while embracing the field with botanical elegance.
Elaborate floral motifs unfold across the field in a rhythmic arrangement of stylized palmettes, rosettes, and serrated leaves, each element woven with deliberate precision. The rich crimson red field serves as a vibrant backdrop, accentuating the sinuous vines and arabesques that intertwine throughout the composition. This floral profusion, rooted in Persian artistic traditions, symbolizes renewal, prosperity, and the harmony of nature. The inclusion of sickle leaves and scrolling tendrils adds a dynamic sense of movement, as if the design itself is perpetually blossoming in an eternal Persian garden.
Encasing this botanical tableau is a regal midnight-hued border, adorned with a processional array of stylized lotus blossoms and angular vinery. The contrast between the bold floral motifs and the deep background reinforces the structural beauty of the Mahal rug, lending a sense of grandeur and presence. A series of delicate guard bands, embellished with geometric meanders and intricate rosettes, frames the central panel, further enhancing the piece’s visual complexity while maintaining a sense of refined balance.
A true testament to the enduring legacy of Persian weaving, this vintage Mahal rug encapsulates both artistic finesse and historical charm. Its intimate patina, soft wool pile, and harmonious color palette imbue it with a sense of time-honored authenticity. Whether gracing the floors of a stately home or serving as a statement piece in a modern interior, this Persian masterpiece bridges past and present, offering an exquisite fusion of history, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance.
Rendered in variegated shades of red, black, green, cerulean, beige, tan, verdigris, ink blue, taupe, rose, brick red, terra cotta, and charcoal with other accent colors.
