This Mahal antique rug measures 312 x 399 cm and presents a richly worn field of brick red, slate blue, muted sage, ivory, and taupe. The allover floral composition is softened by age, with rosettes and palmettes drifting across the centre while a dark, floral border anchors the perimeter. Medium distress gives the surface a hazy, time-worn atmosphere, with visible abrasion and faded contrast that add depth to the design. Circa 1920 - 1940, this wool Mahal carries the layered elegance and patina that define a well-lived antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
