Mahal / 31271

This Mahal antique rug, 3' 3" x 13' 10", carries a washed palette of cream, ivory, faded teal, soft rust, and pale sage across a long, disciplined field. Floral motifs and medallion-like passages emerge and dissolve through the wear, while a narrow border quietly contains the composition. The surface has a softened, timeworn hand that gives the design a calm, layered depth. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reflects the graceful restraint and faded richness associated with Mahal rugs, with medium distress that enhances rather than interrupts the pattern's presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
