Mallayer / 19492

This Mallayer antique rug measures 8' 3" x 11' 2" and is woven in wool with a composed, timeworn presence. An allover field of stepped geometric medallions sits against a deep navy ground, balanced by ivory and cream forms, blue accents, and warm taupe and camel notes. Multiple borders frame the composition with delicate floral detail, while the outer areas show softened fading and visible age. Circa 1915 - 1930, it carries the layered character and restrained palette that make Mallayer rugs feel both graphic and quietly nuanced. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
