Late 19th Century Persian Mahal Sultanabad Rug

About the Item

A magnificent late 19th-century Persian Mahal Sultanabad rug, woven with an intricate allover mirrored trellis design of scrolling vines and stylized florals. The pattern unfolds in a harmonious palette of rust, pink, gold, indigo, and cream-colored wool, creating a dynamic yet balanced composition that radiates warmth and sophistication. The artistry of the field is rivaled only by the extraordinary border, where a bold, large-scale floral motif repeats rhythmically, flanked on either side by pairs of finely detailed floral-patterned stripes. This layered framing effect enhances the rug’s sense of grandeur and refinement, making it a stunning focal point for any space. Mahal Sultanabad rugs are celebrated for their exceptional craftsmanship and unique ability to bridge classical Persian aesthetics with a relaxed, almost painterly quality. This piece, with its rich colors and elegant proportions, embodies that legacy, offering timeless beauty and enduring craftsmanship to any interior.
