This Mahal antique rug measures 312 x 556 cm and presents the softened symmetry associated with the type, pairing an allover field of medallions, palmettes, and floral repeats with a finely detailed border. The red ground is eased by faded blue, ivory, camel, and grey, creating a quiet, weathered surface with tonal variation across the field. Circa 1915 - 1930, it has the looking glass of age, where pattern, colour, and wear settle into a measured, heritage-rich composition that remains clear despite its gentle distress. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
