FAQs

Mahal carpets originated in the Arak region of Persia during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They are characterized by large-scale all-over floral patterns, muted colour palettes, and flexible hand-knotted construction.

These carpets are constructed with hand-spun wool pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft foundation. Natural plant and mineral dyes are traditionally utilised to achieve the soft rust, cream, and indigo tones.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-tied knots visible on the reverse, soft handle flexibility, and subtle colour variations known as abrash. Authentic pieces display soft, pliable foundations with motifs that avoid mechanical geometric precision.

A large Mahal rug serves as a foundational anchor in a living room or dining area, grounding contemporary furniture or layering within classic decorative schemes. Position the perimeter beneath major seating furniture to unify the floor plan.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating brush bar to protect the pile fibres. Rotate the carpet annually to ensure even wear and light exposure, and arrange professional rug cleaning periodically.
