9029 · 7'8" x 11'5" Persian Mashhad Oversized Rug

A navy star medallion sends points into the rose red ground of this charming rug. Worked on a rose red field, scrolling vines and small blossoms in cream and pale blue fill the space around a central figure. A navy star medallion with a cream rosette core sits at the center, sending points into the rose red ground. Gorgeous pale blue spandrels occupy the four corners, holding lovely pink sprays. The main border is navy, with a broad scroll of cream palmettes and pale blue leaves. Narrow guard stripes in cream with small pink flowers edge the wide band. The pile has thinned in a few patches across the field, and the rose red reads paler where the wear is heaviest. It grounds a sitting area, the navy border containing the bright rose red field. At 7'8" by 11'5", it fits a dining table for four with the chairs pulled out, or a living room with the sofa and chairs fully on it.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
