Product Information

With its powerful presence and balanced composition, this antique Persian Mahal rug (10.6 × 13.2 ft) reflects the heart of village weaving from the early 1900s. Its structured allover design is filled with stylized floral motifs, palmettes, and angular vinework, symmetrically arranged across a rich madder red field that exudes warmth and tradition.

Unlike the fine city rugs of Persia, this Mahal displays a bolder, rustic character - favored by collectors for its durability and unpretentious beauty.

The deep indigo border, filled with large rosettes and scrolling vines, provides a striking frame that anchors the piece and adds visual gravity.
