This Mahal antique rug, measuring 333 x 424 cm, presents a softly worn floral composition with a dark surrounding border and a field that has faded into layered, atmospheric tones. Brick red, dusty rose, ivory, taupe, charcoal, and faded sage move through the wool surface, creating gentle contrast against the more open, time-softened centre. Circa 1900 - 1915, it offers the broad proportion and decorative rhythm associated with Mahal weaving, along with medium distress that lends the piece a calm, patinated presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
