About the Item

This exuberant mid-20th century Persian Mahal runner, measuring 1' 10" x 6' 4", is a celebration of color and rhythm. The field is densely packed with a repeated stylized boteh, or paisley motif, each rendered in a diverse and vivid palette. Jewel tones of magenta, violet, emerald, ochre, teal, and coral are arranged within a precise grid, giving the piece a kinetic, mosaic-like energy. Set against a saturated crimson ground, the botehs interlock in diagonal rows, their orientation lending a dynamic flow that draws the eye along the length of the piece. A narrow border of alternating angular motifs in pink and ivory completes the design, providing a subtle frame to the vibrant center. The lively palette and geometric regularity balance tradition with playful expression, making this runner a compelling statement piece. Its rich saturation and rhythmic layout are emblematic of the Mahal weaving tradition's blend of structure and spontaneity.
