Mallayer / 22816

This Mallayer antique rug measures 5' 5" x 11' 7", with a long, linear composition that balances a vivid blue ground against warm brown, gold, and ivory accents. Repeating medallions, scrolling floral traces, and geometric latticework create a layered field, while the narrow border keeps the drawing crisp and contained. The surface shows low distress, with visible wear and gentle fading that soften the palette without obscuring the pattern. Circa 1900 - 1920, it carries the patina and calm depth that give older rugs their distinctive presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
