About the Item

Antique Persian Meshad Wool Rug Size: 15'10" × 30'3" (482 × 922 cm) This grand antique Persian Meshad rug, dating back to the late 19th century, exemplifies the refined artistry of northeastern Iran’s weaving tradition. The spacious composition features an allover pattern of scrolling vines and stylized botanical motifs arranged in symmetrical layers. A variety of blossoms, palmettes, and serrated leaves unfurl across the soft beige ground in a palette of navy, rust, light blue, and muted teal tones. The intricate detailing and sweeping rhythm of the design reflect the influence of classical Persian garden carpets, interpreted here with a degree of openness and grace characteristic of Meshad weaving. The broad primary border, filled with palmette vines and stylized florals, is flanked by multiple narrow guard borders, creating a strong frame around the central field. Hand-knotted in high-quality wool, the rug retains its clarity and elegance despite its generous proportions. The muted, time-softened palette, combined with the fluid movement of the pattern, lends the piece a harmonious and sophisticated presence. This antique Persian rug is well-suited for both traditional and contemporary interiors, and its monumental scale makes it a rare and striking decorative centerpiece. A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition.Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
