Description

Just in from Iran and from the family of a late Kashkuli Khan, this rare pair of 'masnads' ( seating rugs), are finely knotted with the 'moharamat' pattern of tiny, stylised botehs. Made during the last quarter of the nineteenth century, these masnads are complete around the outside, with corded tassels symbolising good luck. The beautiful natural colours in shades of red, turquoise, dark and light blue, golden yellow and ivory are exceptional. Look closely at the masnad on the right to see the extra vertical ivory border containing tiny '5s' - symbols of protection. This border can only be seen in one of the masnads.

Both masnads are in complete, excellent condition and are highly collectable pieces.

Sizes: 56cm x 51cm (1' 10" x 1' 8") each.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
