About the Item

75916 Vintage Persian Mashhad Rug, 09'07 x 12'01. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Mashhad rug is a splendid representation of classical Persian craftsmanship, boasting a stunning 16-point Mashhad medallion at its center. The prominent medallion, a striking focal point, is surrounded by an intricate design of palmettes, feathers, serrated leaves, and blooming flowers, each motif woven with a precision that reflects the rug’s rich cultural heritage. The surrounding field, alive with these organic motifs, radiates a sense of harmony, creating a visually captivating arrangement that draws the viewer's eye inward toward the central design. The medallion is elegantly framed by complementary spandrels, which form an arabesque border around the field, further enhancing the symmetry and balance of the composition. This arabesque frame lends the Mashhad rug a sense of fluidity and movement, as the graceful curves of the motifs intertwine, offering a seamless flow between the medallion and the outer borders. The dynamic tension created by these elements ensures that the Persian area rug remains visually captivating, with each detail adding to the overall narrative woven into its fibers. Enclosing the design is the classic Shah Abbas border, a hallmark of Mashhad rugs, known for its regal appeal and timeless elegance. This grand border is flanked by guard borders and subsidiary guard bands, each meticulously crafted to provide structural integrity and visual continuity. The combination of these borders not only frames the central design but also enhances the rug’s sense of refinement, providing a sophisticated boundary that emphasizes the beauty of the intricate motifs within the field. This traditional style Mashhad rug, with its exquisite craftsmanship and luxurious detailing, offers subtle elegance that can effortlessly anchor and elevate any space. Its rich color palette, balanced composition, and intricate design make it the perfect grounding tool for the room, bringing a sense of calm and refinement to both modern and classic interiors. The Mashhad rug’s timeless beauty and cultural significance make it an enduring masterpiece, offering a touch of Persian artistry that will remain cherished for generations. Abrash.
