Mallayer / 22266

This Mallayer antique rug measures 10' 0" x 13' 0" and carries a time-softened palette of brown, cream, taupe, and faded blue-grey. Its allover field reads as a dense lattice of small floral forms, held by a structured border system with geometric and angular motifs that frame the composition with quiet precision. The surface shows medium wear, with visible fading and abrasion that lend the rug a worn-in, collected character. Circa 1890 - 1905, it offers a restrained but richly layered presence, where muted colour and weathered texture work together with lasting depth.
