This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 0" x 15' 1" and carries a long, disciplined field of small floral motifs softened by age. The sage green ground is anchored by rust red borders and quiet cream accents, creating a restrained palette with depth and warmth. Its surface shows medium distress, with gentle fading and worn character that lend the piece a lived-in presence. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reads as elegant yet understated, with the elongated proportions and rhythmic ornament typical of the category. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
