$12,900.00

This exceptional oversized Persian Mahal Sultanabad carpet, woven in the first quarter of the 20th century, embodies the elegance and artistry of early Persian weaving traditions. The rug features a richly detailed allover pattern, composed of alternating small medallions and stylized floral heads, arranged in vertical columns and interconnected by flowing branches and graceful foliage.

The deep navy blue primary field is masterfully complemented by a dark burgundy border, creating a balanced, sophisticated palette that enhances its visual depth. This regal composition exemplifies the refined aesthetic associated with antique Sultanabad carpets—renowned for their harmonious proportions, subtle color gradations, and enduring appeal.

Handwoven in west-central Persia, Mahal Sultanabad rugs from this era (circa 1900–1925) are highly sought after for their large scale, decorative patterns, and exceptional craftsmanship. Their versatility and timeless beauty make them ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors.
