Symmetrical floral patterns climb up the brick red central field of this antique Mahal rug from Persia. Polychromatic floral and vinescroll patterns create a unified pattern along the center of the border and are surrounded by four floral guardbands.
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
