Mahal / 10406

A wool Mahal that reads like a well-lived tapestry, the faded rose ground warmed by powder-blue rosettes and cream palmettes in the border. The central medallion and repeating floral vocabulary have been softened by time; abrash and medium wear create a subtle, layered colourway and a mellow, tactile surface. This antique rug shows modest edge wear and a lifted, low pile that emphasises its age and craft. Exact proportions are 295 x 389 cm, a measured scale that retains the rug's formal balance while revealing decades of use and repair. Circa 1900 - 1920.
