Mallayer / 24257

This Mallayer antique rug measures 8' 1" x 11' 2", and presents a softly faded field shaped by a large stepped diamond medallion, dense lattice work, and layered borders. The palette moves through warm ivory, taupe, sand, camel, muted olive, and charcoal, with a weathered surface that lends quiet depth to the design. Circa 1900 - 1915, it carries the balanced geometry and restrained ornament associated with Mallayer weaving, while the visible wear softens each motif into a more atmospheric whole. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
