From one of Persia’s most celebrated weaving centers, this 1920s Mashhad carries all the character that only real age can create…stout, solid, and beautifully broken-in. The field blooms with intricate botanical artwork, layered floral forms drifting across a rich berry-toned ground, framed by deep indigo borders that still hold wonderful clarity.
Woven entirely of vegetable-dyed wool, the colors have mellowed in the most pleasing way, creating that soft, lived-in glow. The pile sits low from decades of life, yet the structure remains strong and dependable, a testament to the craftsmanship of Mashhad weaving traditions.
This is the kind of Persian that feels substantial in the hands and soulful underfoot…full of story, texture, and elegant curvilinear and floral art.
