About the Item

77001 Vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz Rug, 04'11 x 06'10. Emanating timeless grandeur and aristocratic charm, this hand-knotted wool and silk Persian Mahi Tabriz rug is an extraordinary masterpiece—an heirloom of distinction and a testament to the refined artistry of Persia’s most preeminent weaving tradition. Crafted in the historic city of Tabriz, a celebrated nucleus of elite Persian rug production, this rare vintage treasure weaves together centuries of heritage and noble design. The regal sixteen-point navy medallion radiates outward in exquisite symmetry, its signature Herati motifs unfolding like silk filigree across a vivid crimson field. This luxuriant red backdrop, a hue historically associated with wealth, power, and spiritual vitality, breathes life into every thread, offering a sensorial experience of warmth, opulence, and cultivated beauty. At the heart of this elite creation lies the fabled Mahi, or Herati, motif—one of the most iconic symbols in Persian weaving, said to represent twin fish gliding beneath the moon’s reflection. This timeless symbol of abundance, grace, and continuity speaks not only to the artistic depth of the piece, but also to the cultural legacy it carries. The motif is rendered here with impeccable precision, each delicate detail a whisper from the past, echoing the legacy of master artisans whose work once adorned the halls of royalty and scholars alike. Surrounding the central medallion, fluted ivory arches shimmer in soft contrast, their curves echoing classical Persian architecture, while palmette pendants add movement and ceremonial poise. The surrounding Samovar turtle-vine scroll border—framed with triple floral guard bands—completes the composition with noble restraint, balancing complexity with classic elegance. Beyond its breathtaking aesthetics lies the rare privilege of ownership. True vintage Mahi Tabriz rugs—especially those woven in wool and silk—are coveted for their limited production, extraordinary durability, and symbolic prestige. They are not merely textiles, but cultural artifacts—precious expressions of human skill, spiritual devotion, and artistic lineage. To own a precious piece such as this is to join a lineage of collectors, curators, and visionaries who understand that true luxury is not about ostentation, but about meaning. Every motif, every knot, every delicate color selection tells a story—of ancestral hands, of sacred design, of enduring beauty shaped by time and tradition. Destined for only the most refined interiors, this one-of-a-kind Persian Tabriz rug elevates its surroundings with quiet grandeur. It is not simply a floor covering, but a conversation, a statement, a sanctuary. In an age of impermanence, it offers permanence. In a world of excess, it offers depth. Whether placed beneath an antique writing desk, in a sunlit gallery, or at the heart of a grand salon, this exceptional work of art brings with it a sense of calm authority, noble heritage, and exquisite refinement. A legacy woven into form—this is the art of living beautifully. Rendered in variegated shades of red, ivory, navy blue, mauve, pink, beige, sky blue, tan, light green, brown, rose, burgundy, dark green, baby blue, apricot, and yellow with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Hand-knotted silk. Made in Iran (Persia). Measures: 04'11 x 06'10. Date: 1970s. Late 20th Century.
