Mallayer / 19484

This Mallayer antique rug measures 8' 7" x 20' 0" and carries a time-softened field of geometric medallions, floral rosettes, and latticework framed by a narrow, patterned border. Wool in faded teal, cream, ivory, taupe, and brown lends the surface a muted, layered depth, while pronounced distress gives the design a worn, atmospheric finish. Circa 1890 - 1910, it reads with the quiet irregularity and softened detail that come with age, yet retains a clear sense of its original structure. The long format heightens the rhythm of the composition and the visual drift across the field.
