This large room-sized Persian Mahal carpet originates from 1890 and is constructed from wool and cotton. The hand-knotted pile displays soft, mellow dyes in terracotta, navy blue, and off-white, featuring an all-over floral lattice pattern packed with palmette motifs, set within a multi-tiered border of vine scrollwork. Visible details include an even low pile throughout, along with some local repairs, and newly secured ends and sides. The piece measures 427 cm high, 313 cm wide, and 1 cm deep. It suits placement as a floor covering in a spacious living room, dining room, or library within an English Country House interior setting.

FAQs

Originating from the Arak region in central Persia during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Mahal carpets are defined by their wide-spaced floral lattice patterns, wool construction, and balanced colour palettes tailored for Western interior schemes.

These carpets are hand-knotted using a hand-spun wool pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft foundation, utilising natural vegetable dyes for their overall colouration.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-tied knots visible on the reverse, natural variations in dye shades known as abrash, a flexible handle, and multi-tiered main borders surrounding expansive palmette or vine lattice patterns.

Position the carpet to anchor a sitting room layout or place beneath a dining table to introduce pattern and textural contrast alongside contemporary furniture and natural timber flooring.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar, rotate the carpet periodically to ensure balanced wear, and place a dense underlay beneath the foundation to minimize fibre friction.
