Antique Mahal Runner Rug (3' x 8')
Dimensions: 3'5" x 8'3" (104 cm x 251 cm).
Circa: 1930.
This antique Mahal runner, circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian rug with a richly drawn all-over lattice of geometric floral motifs framed by a refined border. Its softly faded palette of taupe, ivory, brown, and pale blue gives the hand-knotted design an elegant, timeworn character that layers beautifully into both traditional and collected interiors. An ideal accent for a hallway, entryway, or office.
Faded neutral tones of taupe, brown, ivory, charcoal, pale blue, and beige, with a taupe 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.
