This Mahal antique rug, measuring 259 x 348 cm, presents a gently washed composition in cream, ivory, faded rose, muted teal, and taupe. The central floral field is richly worked yet softened by heavy wear, while the border retains traces of scrolling ornament and blossom motifs. Its distressed surface gives the piece a calm, layered character, with faded passages and a weathered handle that speak to long use. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reads as an aged textile with a measured palette and a beautifully subdued sense of movement. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
