This Mahal antique rug, measuring 4' 2" x 6' 9", presents a richly layered field of floral and geometric motifs in navy blue, cream, ivory, and softened red. The composition is enclosed by a lively border system that adds rhythm without overwhelming the center, giving the piece a balanced, timeworn elegance. Wool pile brings a grounded, tactile hand, while the low distress leaves the drawing legible and the surface pleasantly mellow. Circa 1900 - 1935, it carries the nuanced warmth and density often associated with well-resolved Mahal design. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
