This 6'6 x 10 Persian Tabriz Mahi Rug is a refined example of traditional Tabriz weaving, showcasing the classic Mahi or Herati pattern rendered in rich, earthy tones. The composition balances visual density with elegance, making it suitable for both formal and lived-in interiors.
Design and Motifs
The field features an intricate allover Herati design built from repeating rosettes, curling leaves, and diamond lattice elements. A softly defined central medallion anchors the composition without overpowering the surrounding pattern, allowing the eye to move naturally across the rug.
Border and Framing
A wide main border frames the field with repeating floral palmettes and vine motifs, supported by multiple guard borders that add depth and structure. The border palette complements the field with warm rust, beige, and subtle olive accents.
Colors and Their Placement
The primary field is dominated by rust red and warm brown tones, layered with camel and beige highlights. Olive green and muted gold appear within the floral motifs, while small touches of navy provide contrast and definition throughout the design.
Materials and Craftsmanship
Handwoven in Tabriz using a wool pile on a cotton foundation, this rug reflects the precision and durability associated with the region. The knotting is tight and consistent, giving the rug excellent structure and long-term wear.
