Antique Mahal Area Rug (10' x 15')
Dimensions: 10'8" x 15'7" (325 cm x 475 cm).
Circa: 1910.
This antique Persian Mahal rug, circa 1910, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind carpet with a richly drawn all-over floral lattice set against a warm terracotta field and framed by a deep navy border. Its hand-knotted character is expressed through elegant palmettes, vinery, and nuanced abrash that give the composition depth, movement, and the sought-after patina collectors prize in early 20th-century Mahal rugs. A distinguished statement piece for a living room, dining room, or office.
Muted warm tones of terra cotta, navy, ivory, rust, gold, camel, sienna, and slate, with a terra cotta field.

Mahal rugs are woven in the Mahallat district, about 45 miles southeast of Arak (formerly Sultanabad) in west-central Iran. Hand-knotted in a cottage industry setting on a cotton foundation using soft, lustrous wool with the Persian asymmetric knot, Mahal rugs occupy a distinctive middle ground between formal city carpets and bold tribal work — neither strictly floral nor geometric, they have an ideal informality that allows them to sit comfortably in almost any décor.
Their palette is typically subdued — ivories, grays, soft browns, and faded madder reds — and their all-over "Harshang" or herati-derived patterns have a folksy, country charm beloved by interior designers. Antique Mahal rugs are closely related to the better-known Sultanabad, sharing the same relaxed drawing and warm, lived-in quality.
