Vintage Mid-Century Mahal Persian Rug, 8x12 - "Bright Sanctuary Mahal"
A genuine, room size, hand-knotted, vintage Persian Mahal rug adds color, warmth, and timeless charm and to complement any decor style.
This rug features a range of glorious colors - reds, blues, ivory, pink, yellow and more. The allover design - without a strong central medallion - is very versatile for modern decor. Bold spandrels (corner elements) add drama to the design.
Weavers near the village of Arak, Iran, diligently hand knotted this rug, c. 1950's or 1960's.
I washed the rug by hand in fall 2023, and carefully stored it since then.
The rug is in fair-to-good vintage condition. The design and colors are vibrant and stunning. It has no rips or holes. A professional tailor repaired one small hole with a hand-stitched patch. The collage photo below shows the repair close-up, but it's otherwise very difficult to find. The wool pile shows wear in some areas of the rug, but the wear adds to the bohemian charm.
DETAILS:
-Size: 96x139 inches
-Thickness: 1/4 inch
-Materials: wool pile on cotton foundation
-Age: c. 1950's/60's

RETURNS
I want you to see the rugs in your home to make sure you like them. In case you don't like them for any reason, I offer an easy return policy.
The 'grace period' for returns depends on how you bought the rugs -

You may ship the rug back to me, or drop it off locally by appointment. I will issue a refund for the purchase price, provided that I receive the returned rug within the grace period explained above.

I will expect to receive the returned rug in the same condition that I sent it to you. Please make sure that the rug is dry, not damp or wet. Please do not apply any adhesive tape to the front or back of the rug. I will assess any damage on a case-by-case basis, and subtract the value of the damage from your refund.
