About the Item
1920s Antique Persian Mashad Runner (Fragment)
Size: 2'4" × 14'0" (71 × 426 cm)
This exquisite Antique Persian Mashad runner, dating back to the 1920s, presents a captivating fragment of traditional Persian artistry. Woven in one of Iran’s most culturally rich regions, the runner captures the essence of Mashad rug-making—renowned for its opulent designs and high knot density.
Crafted in a lush wool pile, this runner showcases a sophisticated floral lattice motif, gracefully spreading across the field in a symmetrical pattern. The base is dyed in a vibrant oceanic blue, serving as a dramatic backdrop for stylized palmettes, scrolling vinery, and rosettes in creamy beige, soft gold, and dusty apricot tones. The overall pattern exhibits a classical Persian elegance, while the color palette evokes a sense of both richness and serenity.
Despite its fragmentary condition—reflected in areas of visible age and wear—the runner retains an impressive sense of grandeur. Its abrash (color variations in the dye) and worn patina only enhance its historical authenticity and decorative charm.
This runner would make a stunning hallway accent, or serve as a statement piece in a layered interior setting. Whether laid on its own or paired with contemporary or antique furnishings, it adds texture, heritage, and a touch of antique Persian splendor to any space.
Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
