Mallayer / 21730

This Mallayer antique rug measures 6' 2" x 13' 0" and carries a restrained, timeworn palette of neutral brown, cream, white, and charcoal. An allover geometric lattice fills the field with small diamond repeats, while the border gathers rosette and medallion forms into a steady frame. The surface shows medium distress, with softened contrast and visible wear that lend the composition a quiet, layered depth. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the grounded elegance associated with the Mallayer tradition, balanced, architectural, and richly patinated. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
