About the Item

This vintage Persian Tabriz Mahi rug, crafted in the third quarter of the 1900s, beautifully showcases the timeless elegance of the classic "Mahi" (Fish) design. Woven with a fine wool pile and highlighted with silk accents, this piece originates from one of the premier workshops in the ancient city of Tabriz, located in Persia’s Azerbaijan Province. The geometric composition features a dynamic series of diamond patterns radiating outward in alternating red and ivory tones, all set against a richly detailed field. Framed by a deep burgundy border, the design is further enlivened with shades of lavender, blue, and brown. Revered for its sophistication and enduring appeal, the Tabriz Mahi pattern has been widely emulated, but authentic examples such as this—woven in Tabriz by master artisans.

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.
