Antique Moud Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional Persian piece, woven in the late Qajar era, presents a rare example of a Moud textile rendered in a small scatter size. Its detailed construction and refined palette mark it as a high-status weaving intended for private devotion or display. The primary field is dominated by a luminous, aged ivory color, providing a perfect counterpoint to the deep indigo and rich madder red found in the complex borders. The natural wool foundation ensures a soft patina that only time can bestow upon textiles of this vintage, enhancing the visual depth of the central composition. The central design features a classic Tree of Life motif rising from a stylized vase, framed by a mihrab arch.
