Mahal / 28181

This Mahal antique rug measures 373 x 406 cm and presents a layered, softly faded composition built around a large octagonal medallion, a smaller central diamond, and scattered floral and geometric motifs across the field. Brick red, teal, ivory, slate blue, and warm taupe create a muted, weathered palette with gentle abrasion and visible fading throughout. The borders remain readable yet softened by age, contributing to the rug’s calm, timeworn character. Circa 1915 - 1930, it captures the understated grace associated with Mahal weaving, with a patina that gives the design depth and restraint.
