This Mahal antique rug measures 11' 0" x 15' 3" and carries a quietly layered field in cream, brown, taupe, and muted red. The composition is softened by generous wear, allowing the border system and floral traces to emerge with a ghosted, atmospheric quality. Its surface reads lived-in and tactile, with broad fading and variation that deepen the sense of age. Circa 1920 - 1940, it reflects the restrained elegance often associated with Mahal rugs, where pattern and patina hold equal weight. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
