This antique circa 1930 Persian Mir rug is a hand-knotted, one-of-a-kind carpet distinguished by its serene powder-blue field and finely drawn repeating boteh pattern. Layered ivory, slate, and soft blue borders frame the dense all-over design with exceptional precision and a gracefully time-softened palette. An ideal centerpiece for a living room, dining area, or bedroom.
Faded cool tones of powder blue, ivory, slate, charcoal, pale aqua, and taupe, with a powder blue 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.
