About the Item

72983 Antique Persian Mashhad Rug, 11'00 x 16'00. Mashhad rugs, originating from the northeastern city of Mashhad in Iran, are esteemed for their intricate designs and exceptional craftsmanship. Characterized by elaborate motifs such as central medallions adorned with arabesques and palmettes, these rugs boast a rich color palette derived from natural dyes, including deep reds, blues, and ivories. Floral patterns, inspired by traditional Persian motifs like the Shah Abbasi and Herati, intricately fill the field, while Baroque elements such as dramatic corner spandrels add a touch of grandeur.

Each delicate detail tells a story of tradition and heritage, showcasing the impeccable quality and quiet sophistication synonymous with Mashhad rugs. It is framed with a class Shah Abbas border, a nod to the rich history and cultural significance of Persian carpet weaving. Originating from antique Oriental carpets crafted centuries ago, this iconic motif adds a sense of grandeur and elegance to the rug's composition.
