This Mahal antique rug, measuring 229 x 498 cm, offers a long, elegant field of scrolling florals within a layered border and fine guard bands. The composition is softened by time, allowing ivory, taupe, cocoa brown, muted rust, and faded olive to sit in a subdued, cohesive register. Its medium distress creates a worn, tactile surface with gently faded patterning and visible age character along the edges. Circa 1940 - 1960, it reflects the decorative clarity associated with Mahal weaving, translated here into a quietly weathered, design-led presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
