76657 Vintage Romanian Mashhad Rug, 12'00 x 18'05.

This stunning hand knotted wool vintage Romanian Mashhad rug is a masterful representation of Persian artistry, meticulously crafted with attention to detail and elegance. The rug’s design showcases a breathtaking central medallion, resplendent in rich tones of deep indigo and persimmon, set against a pristine ivory background. This medallion, a classic feature of Mashhad rugs, is adorned with intricate floral motifs and arabesques, drawing the eye inward to its complex, symmetrical pattern. The medallion’s elaborate design radiates outward, creating a visual harmony that captivates the viewer and exudes a sense of timeless beauty.

Surrounding the central medallion is an expansive field filled with delicate vines and scrolling florals, typical of the Mashhad style. The ivory backdrop serves as the perfect canvas for these intricate patterns, allowing the soft hues of sky blue, tan, and sage green to stand out in elegant contrast. The careful arrangement of the floral motifs creates a sense of depth and movement, as though the flowers are gently swaying in a breeze. This meticulous detail work speaks to the high level of craftsmanship involved in the rug’s creation, embodying the rich tradition of Persian rug making adapted by Romanian artisans.

The Romanian rug is framed by a series of intricate borders, each layer adding to the complexity and richness of the overall design. The primary border, adorned with an elaborate array of floral and vine motifs in deep reds, blues, and creams, is flanked by smaller guard borders that echo the same intricate detailing. The interplay of colors within the borders enhances the rug’s overall warmth and depth, creating a visually balanced composition that ties the entire piece together. The careful attention to detail within the borders further emphasizes the rug’s luxurious and refined character.

Measuring an impressive 12'00 x 18'05, this vintage Romanian Mashhad rug is not just a functional floor covering but a piece of art that transforms any space it inhabits. Its large size and commanding presence make it an ideal centerpiece for a grand living room, dining area, or formal setting.
