Mahal / 20449

This Mahal antique rug measures 269 x 368 cm and shows a beautifully worn surface, with a faded central field, floral medallions, and a finely worked border enclosing the composition. The palette blends neutral tones with blue, white, and cream, while softened rose and brown notes linger beneath the visible age. High distress has mellowed the drawing, leaving a layered, atmospheric effect that feels both grounded and delicate. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the elegant understatement of Mahal weaving and the quiet presence of time. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
