Mallayer / 14955

This Mallayer antique rug measures 7' 9" x 15' 9", with a disciplined allover floral lattice that reads as both intricate and restrained. The warm brown field is softened by cream and ivory drawing, while a narrow series of borders frames the composition with quiet balance. Woven in wool, it shows medium distress, with faded colour, gentle tonal variation, and age that lends the surface an earned, tactile depth. The design language feels late 19th century in spirit, refined yet densely worked, with a calm rhythm that carries across the long format. Circa 1875 - 1900.
