Story Behind the Art : Mahal rugs originate from the Arak (formerly Sultanabad) region of Iran, an area with weaving traditions reaching back to the mid-1600s. Although their design lineage shares similarities with the graphic geometry found in Heriz and Serapi rugs, Mahals distinguish themselves through more curvilinear, classical linework that still retains an approachable, tribal charm. Their palettes range from soft neutrals to vivid reds and clear blues, giving them a regally Western aesthetic that blends easily with global décor trends. Some Mahals are known for unconventional yet stunning color combinations, such as oxidized green paired with tourmaline pink—demonstrating the region’s willingness to reimagine tradition through bold creative expression. With their striking patterns and enduring craftsmanship, Mahal rugs remain timeless favorites among collectors and designers.
