Mahal / 19228

This Mahal antique rug measures 12' 0" x 18' 5" and carries the softened grandeur that defines the form. An allover floral field unfolds in faded brick red, dusty rose, muted blue, and sage, with layered borders that hold the composition in quiet balance. The palette has mellowed into a hazy, timeworn register, while visible abrasion and even wear lend the surface a calm, lived-in tactility. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reads as formal yet relaxed, with ornamental detail that remains legible despite the medium distress and gentle fading. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
