78913 Vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz Rug, 08'00 x 10'11. This hand knotted wool and silk vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz rug is an epitome of refined elegance and intricate design. At the heart of the composition lies a concentric cusped central medallion, richly adorned with a detailed Herati motif, which is anchored with elegant cartouche pendants at either end. The medallion's intricate design is a visual focal point, showcasing a complex interplay of floral and geometric patterns that captivate and draw the eye inward.
The midnight black field surrounding the medallion is covered in an allover pattern of Herati motifs, which consist of a stylized flower centered in a diamond flanked by curved leaves. 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. This pattern is repeated across the entire surface, creating a harmonious and rhythmic visual effect that enhances the rug's ornate character. Complementing the central design, the tri-colored corner spandrels echo the Herati pattern found within the field, adding depth and a sense of completeness to the overall design. These spandrels serve not only as a decorative element but also help to frame the central medallion, reinforcing the rug's formal composition.
The border of the rug is equally magnificent, featuring an ornamental Herati border that is flanked by a series of inner and outer guard borders, creating a lush enclosure. This series of borders adds layers of complexity and richness to the rug, each band detailed with motifs that resonate with the central themes. The earth-tone color palette, featuring shades of deep browns, tans, and subtle hints of rust and beige, imbues the rug with a warmth and elegance that is both luxurious and understated. This vintage Persian Mahi Tabriz rug is a masterpiece of textile art, perfect for adding a touch of sophisticated charm and timeless elegance to any interior space.
