Mahal / 19663

This Mahal antique rug measures 10' 3" x 13' 8", with a broad floral field rendered in rust red, teal blue, cream, and brown. The design reads with a faded, layered softness, where palmettes, vine scrolls, and border ornaments are gently worn into an atmospheric whole. Its high distress gives the surface a quiet, timeworn texture, with areas of loss and abrasion that heighten the rug’s visual depth. Circa 1925 - 1940, it carries the relaxed elegance that makes Mahal rugs enduringly compelling. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
