Mahal / 31236

This Mahal antique rug measures 241 x 363 cm, with a pale palette of cream, ivory, and soft teal lifted by hints of coral. The composition is gently patterned, with an allover floral field that has been softened by age and a refined border that remains visible despite the wear. Its medium distress gives the surface a layered, atmospheric quality, with fading and abrasion contributing to the rug’s hushed, timeworn character. Circa 1920 - 1940, it reflects the relaxed elegance and decorative balance long associated with Mahal weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
