This Mahal antique rug, measuring 305 x 610 cm, presents a time-softened floral design in cream, brown, muted red, and faded blue. The border is still readable, while the centre has been heavily worn and faded, giving the surface a gently weathered, painterly quality. Wool pile and visible age character contribute to its quiet depth and lived-in texture. Circa 1925 - 1945, it shows the balanced, decorative language often associated with Mahal weaving, with a restrained palette and softened motifs that feel both formal and atmospheric. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
