Early 20th Century Middle Eastern Meshkin Rug, 1890s

Antique Middle Eastern “Meshkin” rug, from Iran, authentic from the early 1900s.
Entirely artisanal and hand-knotted, this rug has a beautiful size and very elegant patterns typical of Middle Eastern rugs.
We love its bright colors, with its intense navy blue and its dominant red and burgundy red.
Composed of a central diamond-shaped pattern, on which different graphic patterns in contrasting and intense colors are composed.
White borders and colored diamonds. Very elegant.
Presence of fringes on one side of the rug and flush fringes on the other side.
Label present on the back, with the name of the sponsor and former owner Ullman.
Please note this rug is very old, and it has defects, it can be worn in places in particular and the handmade knots have worked. This is what we love about this type of rug, which gives it its charm and authenticity.
The colors, for their part, remained very beautiful and intense, with no visible discoloration due to the sun.
