(Decorative) This ethereal antique Persian Mahal carpet offers a delightfully unique composition coupled with an appealing depth of color. The graphic oversize medallion, enlivened by an artfully selected sky blue tone, takes its place at the center of an unadorned field of terra cotta. Waves of masterfully executed abrash wash across the field with dynamic energy, while the glowing patina of time-softened, natural dyes greatly enhance the effect. It has medium pile and minor, superbly executed restoration along with wonderfully time-matured colors at well over a century of age.
