Mallayer / 12763

A Mallayer wool runner in a warm red field, balanced by cream and white guard borders and soft pink accents. The 2' 10" x 11' 9" proportion presents a disciplined, repeating arrangement of hooked medallions and small geometric florals, the pattern holding clear despite gentle age. Low distress preserves the weave’s tactile pile while subtle abrash gives depth to the red. The borders read like a measured frame, their tiny motifs adding a rhythmic counterpoint to the central field. This antique rug offers a quiet, time-softened presence and a considered sense of craft. Circa 1900 - 1915
