Mallayer / 15545

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 5" x 13' 5" and presents a lively red field anchored by a stepped, zigzag medallion chain and small floral details throughout. Narrow borders frame the composition with repeated foliate motifs in ivory, beige, and muted brown, giving the piece a balanced, graphic rhythm. The wool surface shows low distress, with softened wear and a gently aged hand that lends depth to the palette. Circa 1910 - 1935, it carries the quiet irregularities and warmth that define an antique rug without losing clarity in its design.
