This Mahal antique rug measures 9' 9" x 17' 4" and presents an expansive, softly worn field in ivory, cream, and muted earth tones. The allover floral-and-palmette composition is ghosted by age, allowing the border, medallion echoes, and layered ornament to read with quiet depth rather than sharp contrast. Its high distress gives the surface a luminous, time-softened texture that feels balanced and understated. Circa 1925 - 1940, it carries the relaxed elegance and lived-in patina associated with a well-aged Mahal antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
