Ziegler Mahal / 16940

This Ziegler Mahal antique rug measures 277 x 373 cm and combines an allover floral field with a softly aged, tactile finish. The red ground is enriched with navy, gold, teal, and ivory, while the repeated circular medallions and intricate botanical detail lend steady rhythm across the composition. A deep floral border frames the centre with clear contrast and structure. Low distress is visible in the worn pile, subtle fading, and slight edge character, all of which add to its enduring presence. Circa 1900 - 1925, it reflects the measured patterning and mellowed colour associated with the Ziegler Mahal tradition.
