RESERVED 11x15.5 Vintage Distressed Mahal Carpet featuring large scrolling vinery design and laurel paneled outlines in rich colors

Quiet grandeur, well worn

A field of charcoal and oxidized silver carries scrolling vinery and laurel-framed bouquets, softened by time to blush, terracotta, and dusty sapphire.

Room-making scale

RESERVED 11x15.5 Vintage Distressed Mahal Carpet

A century in the weave

Large rooms often feel unfinished—echoing, visually scattered, hard to gather around. This 10'11" x 15'3" Persian Mahal creates a continuous landscape that anchors furniture and conversation in one gesture. The even wear to the knot heads reads as history, not damage, letting a mix of charcoal black, oxidized silver, blush, madder red, terracotta, and powder blue settle into a soft, livable palette.

Soft focus, strong presence

Pattern at this scale calms busy spaces while rewarding a closer look with laurel paneled outlines and inner-floral bouquets. Fully secured sides and ends lend reassuring completeness, and its recent professional cleaning means it’s ready for the floor the moment it arrives. A vintage voice that invites daily use—and many years more.

For the collector who lives with pieces
