About Mahal Rugs

Mahal rugs are decorative antique carpets from the Arak region of central Persia, closely related to the Sultanabad tradition. They are known for spacious all-over floral and palmette designs, soft color, and sturdy hand-knotted construction in room-filling sizes. Their relaxed, painterly patterns and gentle palettes make them a favorite for layering warmth and history into a space. Antique Mahals offer collectors and designers genuine provenance and decorative appeal at the scale modern interiors often require.


Each rug at First Rugs is individually sourced — no two are alike. Natural variation in color, pile, and patina is part of what gives hand-knotted rugs their lasting character and investment value.
