About the Item
75353 Antique Persian Mashhad Runner, 03'04 x 12'05. Woven in the storied city of Mashhad — one of Persia’s most celebrated centers of artistry — this hand-knotted wool antique runner embodies the refined symmetry and poetic beauty that define classical Persian weaving. With its luminous crimson field and intricate allover pattern, this exquisite work of art evokes the grandeur of 19th-century estate corridors and palace galleries, where such masterpieces once stretched beneath the footsteps of nobility. Each precious knot tells a story of devotion and discipline, revealing a balance between movement and stillness, precision and poetry.
The exceptional composition unfurls in a mesmerizing allover Herati pattern — one of the most revered motifs in Persian design. Known as the Mahi or “fish” pattern, it features a rosette framed within a diamond, encircled by curving lanceolate leaves that glide like fish beneath rippling water. The result is a rhythmic dance of form and color — an enduring metaphor for abundance, eternity, and divine unity. The abrash, those subtle shifts in dye tone, adds soulful dimension to the field, giving this runner its painterly, timeworn patina.
Framing the exclusive composition, a grand border of stylized florals lends architectural weight, while twin guard borders adorned with delicate rosettes and meandering vines complete the visual symphony. The interplay of navy, ivory, and cerulean against the rich red ground captures the quintessential Persian mastery of contrast and harmony. This is a textile not merely woven, but orchestrated — a meditation on beauty rendered in wool and time.
For the discerning collector, The Crimson Garden offers far more than heritage; it offers legacy. This Mashhad masterpiece transforms hallways and galleries into pathways of artful refinement, where each step resonates with centuries of Persian cultural expression. As an heirloom, it stands as both an object of prestige and a living testament to the eternal dialogue between craftsmanship and elegance — a timeless thread connecting the past to the cultivated interiors of today.
