This Mahal antique rug, measuring 230 x 513 cm, presents an allover floral composition with a softly structured border and a field that has gently dissolved into texture over time. Neutral cream, brown, white, and muted burgundy sit together in a calm, earthy palette, with high distress lending the surface a faded, layered quality. The wear is visible throughout, from softened motifs to irregular colour breaks that enrich the character. Circa 1915 - 1930, it reflects the worn elegance and depth associated with a finely aged Mahal. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
