Mashad / 17177

This Mashad antique rug measures 361 x 569 cm and is woven in wool with a subdued palette of cream, beige, taupe, muted brown, faded rose, and soft teal. Its allover floral field reads with a gently erased central emphasis, framed by a narrow border that has softened into the ground over time. High distress gives the surface a washed, lived-in character, with visible fading and worn areas that add to its sense of history. Circa 1910 - 1940, it captures the understated intricacy and aged calm that define a Mashad rug in a distinctly atmospheric form.
