Antique Persian Mahal Large Carpet

A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. A medium-scale, well-drawn Herati allover design slips slightly toward one end while remaining precisely centered horizontally on the beige field. Salient curved and barbed fish leaves dominate the pattern, with no blues present in the field. The pale blue strip-style main border features ragged palmettes in the Mahal manner, along with rosettes and thick curved leaves.
