Mallayer / 18334

This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 4' 4" x 6' 2", offers a softly worn field in faded slate blue and rusted terracotta, framed by a lively border of small geometric and floral forms. The stepped medallion settles into the center with quiet symmetry, while the allover pattern keeps the surface visually active without feeling busy. Woven in wool, it has a naturally aged hand, with low distress and gentle wear that softens the contrast across the composition. Circa 1925 - 1945, it carries the layered warmth and restraint that make Mallayer rugs so enduring.
