83 Grand Bazaar
THE GRAND BAZAAR The Embargo and Old Rugs by Mohtashem T he United States embargo on Iranian goods which was signed by President Reagan on October 29, 1987, is already being felt in the U.S. old oriental rug trade. Whether it is or will be felt in Iran is another matter. However, since the oriental rug trade is so small, so poorly organized professionally to protect and promote its own interests, and insignificant in terms of U.S. trade balances, the embargo is likely to stay. In contrast to Ji... - http://www.rugreview.com/83moht.htm 14/09/2004 - Category: Persian - More from this publisher

 Mahal: Antique oriental rugs; antique oriental rug, Sultanabad
Mahal In an unusual manner the term Mahal is does not refer to a village or province, but most probably it refers to Mahallat, a village located on the southern part of Arak region.
