Mahal Carpet 9.0 x 12.5 2.74 x 3.18 An ivory detailed allover Herati design fills the green field of this attractive west Persian rural carpet. The ivory main border employs the triple posy "tangerine flower" pattern with large rosettes and chunky vines. The minor borders use fan palmettes and simple leaves. The colours are generally clear and the look is cheerful. This carpet has uniform wear, but it is serviceable in almost any context. Circa: 1920 (c7512)
