About the Item

52783 Distressed Vintage Persian Mahal Rug, 10'00 x 14'06. Originating from the Mahallat region in central Northwestern Iran, Persian Mahal rugs are revered for their distinctive characteristics and unmatched craftsmanship. These rugs feature bold geometric motifs, expansive dimensions, and meticulous handcrafting with asymmetrical Persian knots and premium wool. Their vibrant color palette, crafted from natural dyes, spans from deep crimson to tranquil indigo and earthy tones, infusing any space with warmth and richness.

Exuding a romantic rustic charm, this hand-knotted wool distressed vintage Persian Mahal rug captures the essence of English Chintz Rustic style with unparalleled elegance. At its heart lies an almond-shaped central medallion, intricately adorned with ornate florals and foliage, creating a captivating focal point. Trefoil pendants anchor the medallion at either end, while opulent frondescence and vinery gracefully adorn the surrounding space. The open abrashed field, strategically utilized to enhance the medallion's prominence, showcases the artistry of negative space, allowing the intricate design to shine. Integrated spandrels further enhance the rug's aesthetic appeal, forming a secondary frame adorned with symmetrically placed palmettes, rosettes, stylized flowers, rinceaux, and garnished foliage. This meticulous arrangement adds depth and dimension to the composition, evoking a sense of understated sophistication reminiscent of Cotswold Countryside living. Enclosed within a complementary botanical border, accented by inner and outer carnation meander borders and subsidiary guard stripes, the rug exudes a sense of timeless beauty and refined elegance. Drawing inspiration from austere elegance and the rustic charm of the countryside, this vintage Mahal rug strikes the perfect balance between tradition and modernity. With its subtle signs of age-wear adding to its allure, this exquisite rug infuses any interior with a sense of nostalgic charm and timeless sophistication. Whether gracing the floors of a grand estate or enhancing the warmth of a cozy cottage, this vintage Persian Mahal rug becomes a cherished centerpiece, weaving stories of heritage and elegance into the fabric of any space. ​Rendered in variegated shades of rust, brick red, sand, olive, ecru, tan, almond, sage, moss, light gray, baked clay, taupe, and glaucous with other accent colors.
