Mahal / 21036

This Mahal antique rug measures 277 x 371 cm, with a faded allover floral field framed by layered borders and softened medallion-like details. High distress has lightened the palette to ivory, cream, muted teal, soft blue, and worn terracotta, allowing the design to read as atmospheric rather than crisp. The wool surface has a lived-in texture, with visible wear that deepens its heritage character. The border still anchors the composition, even as the centre has relaxed into a pale, timeworn field. Circa 1920 - 1940, it reflects the understated presence associated with a well-aged Mahal.
