Mahal / 21604

This Mahal antique rug measures 457 x 762 cm, with an expansive allover composition shaped by floral, boteh, and vine motifs under a series of narrow framing borders. Woven in wool, the surface carries a softly worn finish, where neutral, white, and cream tones are punctuated by muted blue, rust, and gold. The visual effect is layered and atmospheric, with medium distress that tempers the pattern and brings depth to the field. Circa 1890 - 1930, it captures the restrained ornament and lived-in character that define Mahal design. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
