About the Item

73381 Late 19th Century Antique Persian Mahal Rug, 10'04 x 17'08. A masterpiece of Persian artistry, this hand knotted wool Late 19th Century antique Mahal rug is a celebration of balance, beauty, and cultural heritage. Handcrafted with meticulous artistry, its grand proportions and exquisite detailing reflect the refined elegance of Mahal weavings from the late 1800s. The rich red field serves as a resplendent backdrop for an elaborate allover floral pattern, composed of towering palmettes, rosettes, and delicate vine scrolls. Each floral motif unfurls gracefully, creating a visual symphony of movement and harmony that captures the essence of Persian garden design. Steeped in symbolism, the floral elements throughout the composition represent prosperity, growth, and the eternal cycle of nature. The prominent palmettes, inspired by classical Persian and Safavid motifs, are emblematic of regal splendor, while the intertwining foliage and tendrils signify unity and continuity. The subtle abrash variations within the field infuse depth and warmth, an unmistakable hallmark of natural dyes and traditional dyeing techniques from the late 19th century. This inherent tonal variation adds character and an intimate connection to the artisan’s hand, making each segment of the Mahal rug uniquely mesmerizing. Framing this botanical wonder is a deep blue border, adorned with an intricate procession of stylized blossoms, rosettes, and palmettes. This striking contrast between the luminous blue hues and the vibrant field reinforces the structure of the design, guiding the eye along the perimeter with rhythmic precision. A series of finely drawn guard bands flanks the main border, introducing geometric meanders and delicate floral motifs that enrich the composition without overpowering its central elegance. These elements encapsulate the Persian philosophy of infinite beauty within structured symmetry. Emanating a sense of timeless sophistication, this antique Persian Mahal rug is more than a decorative textile—it is a living piece of history. Its meticulous knotting, luxurious wool pile, and harmonious palette evoke an era when rug-making was at its pinnacle. Whether placed in a grand interior or an intimate space, this woven wonder effortlessly bridges past and present, offering a touch of antique grandeur while remaining an enduring statement of artistic refinement.
