Origin & Manufacturing

Origin: Persia, Khorasan region. This Mashad rug was hand-knotted by skilled master artisans using quality wool on a cotton foundation.

With approximately 160,000–200,000 knots per m², this rug offers a strong and durable structure with clear pattern definition. Its traditional hand-knotting, quality wool, and generous size give it a highly representative presence and long-term value.

Design & Aesthetic Value

The classic Mashad design features a dense floral composition with a central medallion, flowing vines, and a powerful border. Its rich palette of red, deep blue, beige, and warm accents gives the rug depth, warmth, and strong visual authority. In large living rooms, formal interiors, dining spaces, or elegant period rooms, this size creates real presence.

• Classic floral Mashad design with strong central medallion character
• Expressive red and deep blue tones with traditional depth
• Large-format rug for refined, classical, and high-character interiors
• Ideal for living rooms, dining rooms, reception areas, or spacious period homes

Why This Rug Is Different

This rug is not just large. It carries genuine classical authority. Made by experienced artisans, it offers the density, depth, and room presence that make older Mashad rugs so desirable.

Important: this is an older rug. Due to its age, the wool pile is slightly worn in parts of the field, and some areas show visible age-related surface reduction. This is not a hidden defect. It is an honest sign of age that we clearly disclose. Buyers looking for perfect unused condition should not choose this piece. Buyers who value authentic old handmade rugs with character and history may find this exactly right.

Care & Maintenance

An older handmade rug of this class should be treated with care. With gentle use and proper maintenance, its beauty and presence can be preserved for many years.

• Regular Cleaning: Vacuum gently, avoid rotating brushes.
• Spills: Blot immediately; do not rub.
• Professional Care: Use professional cleaning if needed.
• Placement: Avoid moisture; use a non-slip rug pad.
