This Mahal antique rug measures 175 x 305 cm and has the quiet, layered character of a heavily worn surface. The composition shows a softened central field, enclosed by a floral border and an inner frame, with vine and palmette motifs still visible through the fade. Ivory, rust, muted green, and soft teal lend the rug a subdued, mineral palette. High distress softens the pattern and gives the wool a timeworn texture with generous tonal variation. Circa 1900 - 1915, it offers the kind of depth and patina that make Mahal rugs so enduring.
