This Mahal antique rug measures 341 x 485 cm and presents a softly worn floral field, where the design has gently blurred into an understated, layered composition. Cream and ivory are lifted by muted blue, grey, taupe, and faint blush notes, while the border and centre motifs remain visible as softened echoes. The high distress is part of its appeal, with pronounced fading and surface wear creating a tactile, weathered finish. Circa 1900 - 1940, it offers the quiet depth and aged refinement associated with an enduring Mahal. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
