Mallayer / 22817

This Mallayer antique rug measures 2' 0" x 5' 1" and carries the layered character that defines the type, with a dark ground, disciplined floral geometry, and softened border colour. An ivory central medallion settles into a field of latticework, rosettes, and restrained botanical detail in pale sage, muted blue, brown, and black. The composition feels compact yet expressive, with visible wear that has mellowed the contrast and given the surface a quiet depth. Circa 1900 - 1935, it reads as an antique rug with a grounded palette and timeworn presence.
