Antique Persian Mahal Rug, 03'09 x 28'04

About the Item

76571 Extra-Long Antique Persian Mahal Rug, 03'09 x 28'04. Persian Mahal carpet runners are a type of rug crafted in the Mahallat region of central Northwestern Iran, inheriting the distinguished characteristics of Persian Mahal rugs. These runners share the bold geometric patterns, meticulous craftsmanship, and vibrant color palette typical of Mahal rugs but are designed in a long and narrow format suitable for corridors, hallways, and staircases. They often feature intricate motifs such as floral designs, geometric patterns, or medallions, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional utility in high-traffic areas. Persian Mahal carpet runners are prized for their exceptional artistry, enduring quality, and ability to add a touch of elegance and cultural heritage to any space they adorn. Behold the exquisite craftsmanship of this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Mahal runner, adorned with an all-over repetitive pattern of luxurious boteh motifs. Revered for centuries, the boteh motif holds profound symbolism, evoking images of life's myriad manifestations—from the delicate unfurling of leaves to the fiery dance of flames. Representing the eternal cycle of growth and regeneration, each boteh motif serves as a testament to the inherent vitality of nature, weaving a narrative of abundance and vitality within the confines of the rug's intricate design. As idyllic waves of abrash cascade horizontally across the boteh-patterned field, they imbue the rug with a sense of depth and dynamism, forging a harmonious connection between the interior space and the natural world beyond. This captivating interplay of light and shadow, of movement and stillness, invites the beholder to embark on a journey of contemplation and introspection, where every step upon the rug's surface becomes a communion with the rhythms of nature's eternal dance. Enclosed within a botanical border adorned with inner and outer carnation meander guard borders, this Persian Mahal runner stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian craftsmanship and artistry. With its elegant design and profound symbolism, it transcends mere utility to become a cherished heirloom and a timeless symbol of beauty and grace. Whether adorning the hallways of a grand estate or adding a touch of sophistication to a contemporary interior, this antique Persian Mahal runner epitomizes the timeless allure of nature-inspired elegance.
