This antique Persian Mir rug, circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind carpet with the refined all-over lattice pattern that defines this sought-after village weaving tradition. Its softly faded ivory and beige palette, delicate border system, and finely drawn repeating motifs give it an airy, understated presence while preserving the character of an early 20th century hand-knotted rug. An elegant foundation piece for a living room, bedroom, or dining area.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, beige, sand, taupe, cream, and light gray, with a ivory field.
Mir rugs are woven in the Saraband district of west-central Iran, and their name is virtually synonymous with the "mir" pattern — a repeating field of small, curved boteh (teardrop or paisley) motifs arranged in offset diagonal rows on a rich red ground. This endlessly adaptable all-over design, which may derive from a stylized leaf or flame form, became one of the most widely imitated in the history of rug weaving.
Antique Mir-Saraband rugs are finely woven on a cotton foundation with the asymmetric knot. Their warm palette, precise drawing, and quietly rhythmic pattern make them enduringly versatile in traditional and transitional interiors.
