Mahal / 20400

This Mahal antique rug in wool measures 7' 0" x 10' 0" and carries an understated, weathered elegance. A pale cream ground is traced with soft blue, muted neutral, and faded red floral drawing, all gently dissolved by age into a luminous, low-contrast field. The border remains more structured, with geometric accents that frame the composition without overpowering it. Medium distress gives the surface a softened hand and visible character throughout. Circa 1905 - 1920, it reflects the quiet balance and layered ornament associated with Mahal weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
