Mahal / 10024

An accomplished Mahal in wool, measuring 277 x 310 cm, its red field carries a steady lattice of medallions and floral rosettes. Cream and white highlights articulate the pattern against neutral ground, producing refined colour contrasts and a tactile woollen surface. The piece bears low distress, with evenly mellowed tones and subtle abrash that speak to age without loss of definition. Layered border bands frame the centre with quiet rhythm, preserving the clarity of the design. This antique rug offers a sense of handwrought restraint and patinated colour. Circa 1900 - 1915
