Antique Mashad Persian Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This magnificent example of early 20th-century weaving hails from the revered workshops of Mashad, a city synonymous with the finest Persian textile artistry. Its enduring quality and classical design place it firmly among desirable antique rugs. The primary field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, providing a dramatic backdrop for the complex botanical motifs. This use of deep, resonant blue color rugs is characteristic of the region's masterful dyeing techniques, beautifully contrasted by the soft ivory and subtle accents of terracotta and pale gold. Eschewing a central medallion, the composition features an intricate, repeating vine scroll that covers the entire field.
