  • Antique Distressed Mahal
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    This Antique Distressed Mahal is an all wool Handmade and Hand knotted rug. It has an all over design from the 20th century and was made in Iran. The name is derived from the Mahallat village where the rugs were crafted, and they are characterized by beautifully intricate designs and a coarser knotting style. The Mahal carpets in this time period were most often made by an entire family, which explains the loose-to-moderate weaving. They also tend to have a thicker pile like the rural and tribal rugs of the time. There is nothing comparable to the rarity and beauty of a Mahal Persian carpet from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. These rugs are regarded as some of the best examples of folk art weaving...
