422. A stunning old Mashad or Khorassan Palace-sized Carpet

422. Provenance: Mashad or Khorassan, Northeast Persia

Size: 485 x 345 cm

Age: Circa 1920

Condition: Very good.

Notes:  A real beauty. A sophisticated and elaborate floral medallion design with stunning spandrels (corner designs) and main border. The colours are wonderful - cool indigo blues, a mauvish-red and various shades of fushia. Please note the measurements - this is an unusually large carpet.
