Mahal.

Mahal Persian carpets from the late 19th and early 20th centuries are highly sought after by both connoisseurs and interior designers. Renowned for their folk art weaving and decorative aesthetic, these rugs are rare on the international market. They feature unique variations of classic Persian patterns like Herati, Mina Khani, and Harshang, often in soft pastels and earth tones. Produced as part of a cottage industry near the village of Mahal, these carpets have a looser weave and thicker pile, similar to nomadic rugs. Today, Mahal carpets stand alongside prestigious styles like Ferahan and Mahajiran Sarouk from the Arak region.
