After re-dying this 120 year old Antique Mashed Persian rug, i was deeply sadden. My heart really desired to re-weave the rug. The rug is 10 X 14 and the whole entire rug needs to be re-weaved. Most so-called-oriental-rug-specialist would run, and say this rug was un-repairable. Passion of Persia is the only master Weavers that can repair any and all damages to any rug including Navajos, and Animal hides. Back to the Mashad rug! The cost was a fair 30 thousand to re-weave (we are re-weaving the hole rug!) please keep in mind we are reweaving the entire rug ( 140 square feet). Please also keep in mind that we have to hand card, hand dye, ahnd spin the wool before we even begin the restoration. The time frame was 1-2 years. Unfortantly, the client could not afford the re-weave and ask for us to re-dye. We accept, but again my heart wanted to re-weave the rug to its original glory. Persian Mashads are treasured for thier rarity, and design. It is very intresting that 120 years ago this weaver was able to design an art that fits our lives today. The Persian Weaving Culture is over 2500 years old. We accept rugs from any carrier services, and it is very inexpensive to ship rugs. Please consider Passion of Persia for all your rugs needs.
