At this Mashad Persian rug we can easily spot the Nakhshe Allover layout. This means that the Mina Khani motifs are evenly scattered all over the Persian rug's surface. We also observe the darker borders around the central area. These create a great contrast both by using darker colors but also by using different decorative motifs. The characteristic decorative motifs for the borders of this Persian rug are called Shah Abbasi and are commonly used with Mashad Persian rugs. The materials by which these decorations can be displayed are wool combined with silk woven on silk foundation. By buying this Persian rug you will get an almost two years old piece of art with a size of 9'10'' x 13'3'' and a knots density of 161 knots per square inch.
Mashad Rugs
Mashad is the capital of Khorasan in northeastern Iran. The city is known for hosting the mausoleum of the eighth Imam of Shia. Usually this region produces large rugs and their quality is very good. They are made mostly of wool and the floral image of the rug is usually crowded with a medallion in the center. |
