About the Item
75540 Vintage Persian Mashhad Rug, 08'01 x 11'06. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Mashhad rug embodies a majestic harmony of regal artistry and classical refinement, a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian craftsmanship. The composition is anchored by a magnificent sixteen-point central medallion, delicately round yet commanding in its intricacy. This medallion radiates from the heart of the design like a blossoming sunburst, layered with stylized floral motifs, cloud bands, and arabesques. Trefoil palmette pendants gracefully extend from either end, lending a rhythmic balance that draws the eye along the central axis. Each motif is meticulously rendered, creating a rich, layered tapestry of floral elegance.
Surrounding this medallion is an expansive abrashed burgundy field, saturated with centuries of depth and softened by time into a rich, jewel-toned backdrop. An elaborate allover pattern unfolds across this space—blooming palmettes, rosettes, leafy tendrils, and stylized florals all entwined with slender, curving vines that weave a visual symphony of movement and grace. The rhythmic repeat of these botanical motifs lends a lyrical quality to the rug’s field, evoking the gardens and poetic tapestries of Persia’s cultural past. As though echoing the field’s romantic bloom, the navy corner spandrels gracefully mirror its motifs, framing the medallion and enhancing the symmetry of the design.
The borders of the Mashhad rug serve as both containment and crescendo—a powerful framing device that deepens the visual complexity without overwhelming the central field. The primary border features a classic Herati palmette design, richly layered with serrated leaves, stylized blossoms, and scrolling vines, all rendered in a harmonious palette of navy, ivory, and soft terra cotta. This grand border is flanked by double floral meander guard bands, whose delicate procession of blossoms and vine work offers a subtle yet essential contrast to the more densely decorated core. The borders do not merely contain the field—they elevate it, adding structure, rhythm, and a sense of completeness.
Rooted in tradition and steeped in artistic intention, this vintage Mashhad rug encapsulates the soul of Persian design with a quiet grandeur that transcends time. It reflects not only the refined aesthetic of Mashhad weavers, but also the poetry and precision that define Persian textile artistry. From its stately medallion to its lavish floral embellishments, every element is imbued with meaning, crafted with care, and composed with an eye for balance and grace. This is more than a rug—it is a woven narrative of beauty, heritage, and timeless sophistication.
Rendered in variegated shades of burgundy, navy blue, beige, royal blue, rose, mauve, sky blue, pink, tan, orange, gold and brown with other accent colors.
