Antique Moud Persian Ivory 1920s Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of Persian weaving tradition hails from the Moud region, renowned for its fine knotting and elegant designs. The central field is dominated by a luminous, soft ivory color rugs palette, providing a refined backdrop for the intricate botanical motifs.
The composition employs a sophisticated allover design, where delicate blossoming vines and palmettes repeat seamlessly across the surface. This lack of a central focus allows the eye to travel fluidly across the textile, emphasizing the weaver’s masterful control of scale and symmetry.
A striking contrast is achieved through the use of soft, pale blue in the primary border, framing the field with cool clarity. Subtle accents of muted olive, deep indigo, and rose blush are woven into the floral sprays, lending depth and dimension characteristic of the finest antique rugs from this period.
Retaining its remarkable clarity and soft patina after a century of life, this piece serves as a testament to the enduring quality of early 20th-century Persian craftsmanship. Its generous proportions make it ideal for use as one of our premier room size rugs, offering a foundation of understated luxury for any classical or transitional interior.
