1950s Vintage Mid-Century Kirsehir Rug Transitional Red Orange Mihrab Pattern

Hand knotted in wool originating from Persia between 1950-1960, this vintage mid-century Kirsehir rug enjoys one of the more distinct approaches to the venerated Mihrab pattern we’ve seen in our antique & vintage collections, both in the unique play of red and orange colorway as well as the meticulous variations of tribal and floral geometry the meandering borders enjoy. The play of these intricate paginations of beige-brown, blue, yellow, and off-white creates a sense of movement complementing the alternation of figure and floral pattern in such a joyful dedication even few pieces of this versatile size enjoy in this condition.
