The medallion is filled with and surrounded by an all-over pattern of Herati creating a frenetic garden. A scalloped lozenge floats in the central field while a smaller medallion echoes the hues of the cut-out spandrels. The Classic Herati pattern, also known as the Mahi or Fish pattern, is amongst the most widespread and well known of all Persian designs, consisting of a flower centered in a diamond accompanied by curving lanceolate leaves that resemble fish. The Herati motif is widely used in Iran and believed to represent the small fishes come up just beneath the surface of the water to swim in the full moon s reflection. The Mahi Persian rug is framed with a turtle vine scroll border flanked with an inner and outer carnation meander guard band. Decadent beauty in a war less
