Antique Persian Mahal Rug 4' x 6'. Mahal means many things in the rug world. The antique Persian carpets from the British firm of Ziegler with large scale allover patterns in the most desirable soft color’s: rust, ivory, light blue, light green, are Mahal’s. So are the repeating pattern rugs of the 1920’s-30’s with red fields and moderate weaves. The rugs termed Sultanabad’s are Mahal’s. With this chameleon character, there is a Mahal for any space, any décor, and any price point. Colors: blues/faded rust/terracotta/beige.
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.
