Mahal / 21935

This Mahal antique rug, measuring 3' 6" x 5' 6", presents an allover field of floral medallions, vinework, and small rosettes that read with a softened, timeworn clarity. Deep forest tones sit behind rust red, muted rose, and faded ivory accents, giving the surface depth without losing its rhythm. A narrow floral border frames the composition, while visible wear and abrash-like variation create a layered, lived-in finish. Circa 1910 - 1930, it carries the generous patterning and restrained colour balance that define this Mahal weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
