Vintage Indian Mahal Wool Rug, Timeless Allure Meets Tribal Enchantment

About the Item

78713 Vintage Indian Mahal Rug, 03'04 x 05'02. Step into a world where timeless allure intertwines with tribal enchantment in the embrace of this vintage Indian Mahal rug. Hand-knotted with care and reverence, this vintage Indian rug invites you to witness the magic woven into every fiber. At its heart lies a stepped lozenge medallion, a radiant centerpiece adorned with a light green elibelinde, the iconic "hands on hip" motif that whispers of ancient stories. Anchoring this captivating centerpiece are the tree of life motifs, standing tall and proud, their roots reaching deep into the rug's historical roots. ​Around it dance cross motifs, a symphony of S-hooks, creatures from the wild, delicate blooms, and enigmatic tribal symbols, all artfully scattered across the abrashed rust-colored field. Here, the very fabric of this small Persian-style rug tells tales of a time gone by, invoking a sense of tribal mystique. In the corners, tan spandrels hold their own, each corner a canvas for the rich storytelling to unfold. As you traverse the field, let your imagination wander among the cross motifs, S-hooks, and the intriguing play of ambiguous tribal symbols—a visual journey through the culture of rugs from India. The borders echo the Herat style, a testament to its heritage. With each loop and curve, a sense of order emerges, defining the boundaries of this enchanting masterpiece. An outer cross guard border adds a touch of structure, guiding the eye along the edges with a subtle grace. This vintage Indian Mahal rug isn't just a floor covering; it's a portal to a world where stories are whispered through the warp and weft. As you bring this vintage Indian rug into your space, let its enchanting earth-tone colors and tribal charm captivate your senses, creating a haven where time seems to stand still, and every step echoes with the echoes of a bygone era. Rendered in variegated shades of rust, tan, russet, sky blue, brick red, light green, orange, black and beige with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 03'04 x 05'02. Date: 1970s. Late 20th Century.
