Near-Square Vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi in Navy, Burgundy, Ivory
About the Item
Exuding sophistication and exceptional craftsmanship, this near-square vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi rug is a rare find—both in its coveted proportions and its masterful execution. Woven in the late 20th century in the renowned weaving city of Tabriz, located in Persia's Azerbaijan province, this rug is a shining example of the classic Herati (Mahi) pattern, executed with extraordinary finesse.
The rug features a deep midnight navy field adorned with a central medallion and corner spandrels in elegant tones of ivory, green, and burgundy. The harmonious layout is a hallmark of traditional Tabriz artistry, showcasing the time-honored Mahi (Herati) motif—a pattern of stylized fish and rosettes symbolizing abundance and protection.
This piece stands out for its extremely fine weave and high knot density, attributes that place it among the finest works produced in elite artisan workshops of Tabriz. The burgundy border, detailed with palmette and vine scroll motifs, frames the central design with striking definition and timeless elegance.
The near-square dimensions make it a highly sought-after piece, especially suitable for balanced, symmetrical spaces such as formal sitting rooms, libraries, or under square dining tables.

Vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi Rug in Geometric Pattern in Ivory, and Burgundy
Located in Barrington, IL
his exceptional vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi rug was woven by one of the finest artisan workshops in the historic city of Tabriz, Northwest Persia, during the third quarter of the 20th century. Distinguished by its rare and highly sought-after ivory field, this room-size rug showcases the timeless beauty of the classic Mahi (fish) design — an enduring symbol of Persian textile artistry.
The intricate Mahi pattern, executed with extraordinary precision, is elegantly framed by a rich red border, enhancing the rug’s visual depth and sophistication. Subtle corner accents in deep and light chocolate tones add a refined contrast, enriching the overall composition with warmth and character.
While the Mahi motif has been replicated across Persia and beyond, authentic examples of this caliber — demonstrating master-level craftsmanship, harmonious design, and superior materials — are increasingly rare. This rug is not merely a floor covering but a true work of art, ideal for elevating traditional, transitional, or contemporary interiors with its exquisite detail and historical significance.
