About the Item

61230 Vintage Persian Mahal Rug Runner, 03'08 x 10'06. This exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Mahal rug runner is a captivating display of traditional artistry, featuring an allover pattern of Herati motifs that gracefully adorn the midnight navy blue backdrop. The deep, rich hue of the field provides a stunning contrast to the intricate design, creating a sense of depth and mystery. The Herati motifs, with their stylized flower centers encased within diamonds and flanked by curved leaves, evoke a timeless elegance that is both mesmerizing and sophisticated. Each Herati motif within this Persian Mahal carpet runner carries a deep symbolic meaning, often believed to represent fish swimming just beneath the surface of the water, illuminated by the reflection of a full moon. This interpretation adds a layer of mystical allure and cultural richness to this vintage Mahal hallway rug, making it not only a decorative piece but also a reflection of the rich history and traditions of Persian artistry. The careful arrangement of these motifs across the rug creates a harmonious and rhythmic pattern that draws the eye and invites contemplation. Framing this intricate design is a meandering angular botanical border, which elegantly encircles the central field. The border's angular forms provide a striking contrast to the flowing curves of the Herati motifs, adding a dynamic and balanced element to the overall composition. The inner and outer running water guard borders, often associated with purification, further enhance the rug's design, symbolizing the cleansing and renewing properties of water. These borders not only protect the intricate design but also contribute to the rug's overall sense of completeness and harmony. This vintage Persian Mahal rug, with its rich color palette and intricate symbolism, is a versatile piece that can elevate any interior space. Whether placed in a hallway, entryway, or alongside a stairway, it brings a sense of refined elegance and cultural depth to the environment. The combination of the midnight navy blue field, the symbolic Herati motifs, and the meaningful borders creates a piece that is both visually stunning and deeply meaningful, making it a cherished addition to any home. Rendered in variegated shades of ink blue, red, rose, tan, navy blue, pink, beige, taupe, and royal blue with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 03'08 x 10'06. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
