On the Design:

Designers and admirers of the craft alike will immediately recognize the quiet majesty of this grand Mazlaghan Persian rug. The design features a dramatic diamond-shaped central medallion that commands the ivory field with crystalline authority, its stepped perimeters creating angular brilliance through mathematical perfection. The central medallion demonstrates exceptional internal complexity—concentric diamond formations house intricate palmette and geometric motifs rendered in deep indigo and coral articulation. The beige field provides luminous negative space that enhances the medallion's dramatic presence while scattered rosette motifs create celestial constellation effects throughout the devotional space.

The exceptional graph and refined detail of the geometric and floral patterns alike attest to both the quality and condition, meanwhile the richness of burgundy and crimson red plays elegantly with the uncommon blue, pink, and black hues in an arresting-meets-dignified dimensionality against the beige background. Particularly well-suited in this size to entryway, study, library, and home office rugs welcoming the mature, soulful nature of this hand-knotted antique Persian rug. This level of artistry, especially on a scale as generous and versatile as this, is increasingly rare and highly coveted among curators today.
