Mahal / 17996

This Mahal antique rug in wool measures 13' 8" x 17' 4" and carries the softened presence of age through its faded field and gently muted border. The allover floral composition is layered and intricate, with small medallion-like details emerging through a veil of wear. Warm rose, terracotta, sage, taupe, and pale blue tones remain visible despite the heavy distress, giving the piece a quiet depth. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reads as both timeworn and resolved, with an atmospheric surface that holds texture, variation, and history in equal measure.
