About the Item

This vintage 5 x 8 piece is a rare mid-century Persian horse cover—handmade with felt wool circa 1950-1960. Items like these are extremely collectible—once used to keep high-value horses warm after their races. Its design favors beige and off-white notes, as well as polychromatic embroidery with navy blue and red notes therein. Keen eyes will admire the play of these textures together—a beautiful marriage of gentle sheen and high-and-low geometric patterns. This vintage Persian horse cover further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It’s well-suited for the floor as a rug, and is equally appropriate for wall-hanging in its many decorative applications.
