About the Item

78961 Antique Persian Mahal Rug, 09'05 x 12'08. This exquisite hand-knotted wool antique Persian Mahal rug radiates with a sense of timeless beauty and craftsmanship. The rug’s striking red field is anchored by a large central medallion, filled with intricate geometric motifs, roses and floral bouquets that are masterfully woven into the design. The boldness of the red background serves as the perfect canvas for the center medallion and surrounding patterns, showcasing the hallmark balance and symmetry characteristic of Persian rug artistry. Each detail in the Mahal rug reflects the weaver's skill and dedication, making this piece not just a floor covering, but a work of art. The focal point of the rug is its central medallion, an intricate floral-geometric hybrid with an almost mandala-like presence. This central design draws the eye inward, symbolizing unity and harmony, a common theme in Persian culture. Surrounding the medallion are swirling vines and floral motifs that echo throughout the rug, filling the red field with life and movement. The floral elements are stylized in traditional Persian form, with angular leaves and blossoms suggesting the constant cycle of growth and renewal, which is a central theme in Persian rug symbolism. Framing the vibrant red field is a wide, elaborate floral border adorned with stylized lotus blossoms, blooming palmettes and floral sprays in a palette of beige, navy blue, and soft pinks. This ornamental border is flanked by delicate carnation meander guard bands that add depth and dimension to the overall design. The floral motifs within the border are intricately woven, showcasing a level of detail that speaks to the Mahal region's reputation for producing high-quality, enduring rugs. The palmettes, symbolizing life and prosperity, are a testament to the cultural significance of Persian rugs as more than decorative objects but as items that convey deeper meanings. In terms of interior design, this antique Persian Mahal rug would bring a sense of history and grandeur to nearly any space. Its bold red field and intricate design make it an ideal centerpiece for a living room, dining room, or bedroom. The rug's rich colors and harmonious patterns evoke feelings of warmth and sophistication, while the historical craftsmanship ensures that it remains a statement piece for generations to come. Its versatility in complementing both traditional and contemporary settings makes it a treasured addition to any home, embodying both cultural richness and timeless elegance. Abrash. Age Wear.
