About the Item

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.
