About the Item
Exquisite 1900s Oversized Antique Persian Meshad Rug
Size: 15'3" × 19'3" (464 × 586 cm)
Radiating classical elegance and remarkable craftsmanship, this oversized antique Persian Meshad rug—woven circa 1900—is a quintessential example of the opulence and artistry that define the finest Persian weaving traditions.
Woven in the historic city of Meshad, a renowned center for premium Persian rug production, this striking carpet captivates with its dense, harmonious all-over pattern composed of interlacing vines, palmettes, rosettes, and floral sprays. The masterful use of symmetry and repetition throughout the field imbues the composition with a sense of regal rhythm and visual cohesion.
The field is rendered in a warm, muted tan or camel tone, which acts as a gentle backdrop to the more saturated accents of burgundy, rose, plum, and charcoal. These richly dyed motifs are framed by a series of complex borders, where floral cartouches and serrated leaves repeat in finely knotted precision. The wide main border—decorated with stylized flowerheads and leafy arabesques—serves as an elegant counterbalance to the intricate interior.
Crafted with a wool pile on a cotton foundation, the rug displays the high knot density and finesse characteristic of Meshad workshops. Its generously oversized format (approximately 19' x 15') makes it a rare and commanding piece, ideal for grand interiors, formal dining areas, or spacious salons seeking timeless sophistication.
This antique Meshad carpet not only embodies the finest qualities of Persian textile art—it also serves as a collector-grade statement of enduring beauty and cultural legacy.
This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship. 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.
