This antique Persian Ferahan Mahal rug is one of those pieces that quietly checks all the boxes. It features a classic all over small scale fish design, also known as Herati, wrapping around delicate flower heads, all set against a deep navy blue ground that really lets the pattern pop. The design feels busy in the best way…layered, rhythmic, and easy to live with.
The border bands are highly decorative and well balanced, framing the field without overpowering it. And let’s talk color for a second…the pink and blue combination is a proven crowd favorite. Soft, warm, and cool all at once, it plays nicely with both vintage and modern spaces.
The wool is luxuriously soft and flows beautifully when handled, a clear sign of high quality fiber and solid, fine construction in the weave. It’s soft to the touch, low pile, and built to handle real life. It has a beautiful sheen to it, it’s durable, practical, and elegant. In very nice condition overall, this is an excellent example of a Ferahan Mahal rug that works hard while looking great doing it. A true everyday classic with personality.
