Mallayer / 18285

This Mallayer antique rug measures 6' 3" x 12' 11" and is woven in wool with a long, narrow format that lends clarity to its layered geometry. The field shows repeated medallion forms in faded teal and sand, while the border carries compact floral and angular detail in taupe, ivory, and muted rose. Visible wear has softened the contrasts, giving the surface a hushed, timeworn finish. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the restrained ornament and quiet richness associated with the Mallayer tradition, with an antique rug presence that feels settled and textural.
