If you like them ancient, worn, and full of character…this 19th-century Sultanabad-Mahal will hit the spot. Old-world wool, veggie dyes, and that super lovable lived-in look that only real age can pull off.
The palette brings cozy depth, a brick red field with decorative botanicals floating in soft negative space, all framed by a bold oatmeal border with classic turtle motifs. Pure Persian charm. The weave is a loose village weave with that floppy, relaxed handle we all geek out over. Meaty and heavy in hand, yet still drapes like an old quilt from grandma’s chest.
This beauty has lived, worn in all the right ways and given TLC along the way, so it’s clean and ready to drop into a space that appreciates soul and patina. A rug like this doesn’t try too hard, it already earned its stripes over 100+ years and comes with all the vibe. Perfect for someone who wants age, story, and that deliciously imperfect beauty only the ancient ones have. Due to its worn nature, it’s not recommended for a high traffic area.
