Mahal / 32023

This Mahal antique rug, measuring 10' 4" x 14' 6", carries a layered allover floral composition softened by age and wear. A rust red field is strewn with cream, ivory, pale blue, and olive blossoms, while the border holds the design with quiet precision. The medallion read is subtle, allowing the field to feel open and painterly rather than formal. Medium distress lends the surface a worn, luminous character, with faded contrast that reveals the rug's history in a graceful way. Circa 1915 - 1930. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
