Mallayer / 24240

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 3" x 11' 8" and carries a long, narrow composition that feels structured yet quietly worn. The field is organized around layered geometric medallion forms and small floral motifs, held within multiple borders that add rhythm without overwhelming the design. Brown, neutral, white, cream, and muted blue tones have softened into a weathered surface with medium distress and gentle fading throughout. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the grounded elegance and visual complexity associated with classic Mallayer weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
