Early 20th Century Persian Mehraban
About the Item
This early 20th-century Persian Mehraban rug is a radiant expression of village weaving tradition from northwestern Iran. At its center lies a large floral medallion, its stylized petals and leafy tendrils blossoming amidst a vibrant field teeming with even more floral clusters. A complex border encircles the design, composed of multiple slim stripes woven with petite, rhythmic floral motifs that create a sense of elegant movement. The palette is exceptionally lively—brilliant greens, vivid oranges, soft whites, pinks, coral tones, and deep indigo all working in harmony to create a rich visual tapestry.
Mehraban rugs are hand-knotted by tribal and village weavers near Hamadan, a region long celebrated for its robust and decorative rugs. They are known for their balance of bold design and fine craftsmanship, often taking cues from the classical Persian court style while infusing it with regional character. Durable and decorative, this rug brings color, history, and beauty to any room.
