This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 5' 2" x 11' 7", carries a calm, elongated presence with an arched central reserve and finely worked borders that frame the composition in quiet balance. The wool surface blends cream, beige, muted blue, brown, and softened rose accents, creating a layered field of pattern that feels both ordered and gently timeworn. Repeating floral motifs and geometric guard bands give the design its rhythm, while the visible wear and faded tones add depth. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the restrained elegance often associated with Mallayer weaving.
