Mallayer / 14952

This Mallayer antique rug measures 8' 6" x 21' 5" and presents a long, elegant field in sage green and teal, softened by cream, ivory, and brown ornament. A large stepped medallion anchors the composition, while floral sprays, boteh-like details, and layered borders create a refined, rhythmic balance. The palette has mellowed into a quietly weathered surface with visible abrasion and gentle wear that bring depth to the design. Circa 1885 - 1900, it carries the grounded character and decorative restraint that define an antique rug with enduring presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
