Mallayer / 14405

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 7" x 7' 7" and carries a calm, finely ordered field of floral medallions and lattice forms in ivory, taupe, and chocolate brown, touched with muted blush and grey. The design reads with clarity, yet the surface has softened into a measured, lived-in patina that lends depth to the contrast. A narrow floral border completes the composition without overwhelming it. Circa 1885 - 1900, this wool piece reflects the restrained elegance and graphic rhythm associated with Mallayer weaving, with a warm, timeworn character that feels quietly composed.
