This Mahal antique rug, 318 x 508 cm, presents a time-worn floral composition with a muted central medallion and a border that remains more legible than the field. Soft rust, blush, taupe, dusty teal, and ivory tones sit beneath broad areas of fading, creating a layered, atmospheric surface. High distress gives the piece an open, weathered character, while the ornament still reads with grace and structure. Circa 1910 - 1925, it offers the subdued richness and lived-in patina associated with an antique Mahal, where pattern and wear move in quiet balance.
