1950's Persian Mahi Tabriz Carpet with Traditional Style

About the Item

79107 Vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz Rug, 06'06 x 09'06. This hand knotted wool vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz rug is a stunning representation of the timeless artistry and intricate craftsmanship that define Persian textile traditions. At the heart of the rug's design is a spectacular central medallion, radiating with complex layers of floral and geometric patterns, highlighted by a vibrant color palette. The medallion's captivating beauty is ornamented by a serene expanse of ivory that showcases the meticulous detail of the weaver's hand. Surrounding the central medallion, the field of this vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz rug is intricately adorned with a continuous tapestry of Herati motifs, a staple in Persian rug design. Known as the "fish pattern," the Herati consists of a central rosette surrounded by curved leaves, reminiscent of fish swimming around a flower. This complex arrangement highlights the artisan's skill and adds a rich, textured visual appeal to the rug. The balanced palette of navy, deep reds, and warm terra cotta enhances the design's intricacy, making each hand-knotted motif stand out beautifully. The Herati pattern carries a deep symbolic meaning, often associated with prosperity and luck, evoking images of a lively pond and blossoming flowers—elements central to Persian art and poetry. This motif’s repeated use across the rug suggests a narrative of unending abundance and natural beauty, reflecting the weaver's intent to capture and portray the essence of nature's perfection. The rug's exquisite craftsmanship and meaningful design not only showcase Persian artistic traditions but also make it a valuable cultural artifact, perfect for enriching any collection or decorating a living space with its historical significance and visual allure. The Herati border of the Tabriz rug is a masterpiece in itself, composed of several layers of ornate patterns. Each layer is a succession of detailed floral and vine motifs, which collectively frame the central field with a structured yet flowing boundary. This elaborate border not only encapsulates the artistic theme but also emphasizes the Persian rug’s formal symmetry and the weaver’s skillful precision. Historically, such rugs were not only a symbol of luxury and taste but also a reflection of the deep cultural significance and storytelling through textile art in Persian society. This vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz rug, with its rich colors and elaborate designs, is more than just a decorative piece; it is a celebration of cultural heritage, showcasing the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of Persian weavers.
