Vintage Oversized Persian Mahal Sultanabad Rug with Allover Geometric Pattern
Located in Barrington, IL
A captivating example of early 20th-century Persian craftsmanship, this vintage oversized Mahal Sultanabad rug features a striking all over geometric design set against a rich red field. Woven by skilled artisans in Persia, this piece beautifully embodies the timeless appeal and artistic legacy of the Sultanabad weaving tradition. The rug showcases a vivid red background adorned with a bold array of large-scale geometric motifs, thoughtfully connected by scrolling vines and stylized branching forms. The intricate design brings both structure and movement to the overall composition, making it a visually dynamic centerpiece. Framing the central field is a deep abrash navy border, offering elegant contrast and further visual interest. Within the border, a series of repeating geometric elements echo the motifs of the field, all rendered in a harmonious palette of green, yellow, blue, and pink—colors derived from natural vegetable dyes and softened gracefully over time. With its generous size and timeless design, this Persian Mahal Sultanabad rug is a perfect statement piece for grand living areas, dining rooms, or curated interior spaces looking to incorporate rich color, cultural history, and fine craftsmanship.
