Blue Antique Tribal Mina Khani Design NW Persian Hallway Runner Rug

$12,000.00

Antique N.W. Persian Allover Floral Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1870s. This exceptional example of 19th-century weaving presents a sophisticated, densely knotted field typical of the finest antique rugs produced in the region. The design utilizes a highly structured repeating pattern, moving away from central medallion formats toward a continuous garden aesthetic. The deep indigo ground provides a rich, saturated backdrop for the stylized blossoms and meandering vines. This striking use of a dark field, characteristic of many important blue color rugs from the late Qajar period, allows the secondary colors—vibrant reds, creams, and subtle olive greens—to achieve maximum clarity and visual depth. The primary border, rendered in a warm, oxidized madder red, features a repeating cartouche and floral motif that beautifully complements the central design.
