This Mahal antique rug measures 335 x 551 cm, with an allover field of floral medallions and lattice-like ornament contained by a framed border. The palette moves through neutral, white, cream, brown, faded teal, and softened red, creating a gently weathered composition with a restrained sense of contrast. Circa 1885 - 1900, the rug shows medium distress, including fading, surface abrasion, and frayed edges that add tactile character. Its pattern remains readable, yet softened, giving the piece a calm, timeworn presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
