Description: Antique, Persian Mashad rug, hand knotted in Persia of 100% natural wool. This rug is 70+ years old and has medium wool piles and is in excellent condition, with very little wear for its age. Beautiful colors made from vegetable dyes with excellent quality. This shade of red is a telltale sign that this is a Mashad rug. No holes or repairs. Plush, classy and soft. Gorgeous design but not a perfect rectangle. Clean and ready to be enjoyed. Recent embargoes by the U.S. against Iranian goods should cause the value of these rugs to increase.
