90021 Antique Persian Mahal Rug, 12'07 x 17'00. Step into a realm of timeless beauty with this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Mahal rug, an exquisite testament to masterful craftsmanship and intricate design. The rug's allover pattern is composed of small-scale Herati motifs, meticulously woven to create a harmonious and dynamic composition. Each Herati motif, thought to symbolize fish swimming just beneath the water's surface in the reflection of a full moon, adds a layer of mystical allure and cultural depth to the rug. The interplay of rustic earth-tone colors—rich browns, deep blues, and subtle reds—brings the design to life, evoking a sense of nature's tranquility and beauty.
Enclosing the central field is a captivating border adorned with acanthus leaves and rosettes, flanked by inner and outer double guard borders. This intricate framing adds a touch of elegance and refinement, enhancing the rug's overall aesthetic. The border's detailed scrollwork and floral patterns create a sense of continuity and flow, seamlessly blending with the central motifs to form a cohesive and balanced design. The lovingly time-worn composition of the rug, with its soft, faded colors and gentle patina, tells a story of generations past, imbuing it with a unique character and charm.
This antique Persian Mahal rug is the epitome of laid-back luxury and relaxed refinement, making it a perfect addition to a variety of interior design styles. Its rugged beauty and nature-inspired hues complement rustic and traditional settings, adding warmth and authenticity to any space. At the same time, its timeless elegance and sophisticated design make it a versatile piece that can seamlessly blend into contemporary and eclectic interiors. Whether gracing the floors of a cozy living room, a grand dining area, or a serene study, this rug invites you to experience its enchanting beauty and rich cultural heritage, creating a captivating focal point that transforms any room into a haven of elegance and comfort.
