Mallayer / 25357

This Mallayer antique rug measures 5' 6" x 14' 3" and carries a long, restrained field softened by time. The composition moves through stacked geometric medallions, scattered floral detail, and a narrow border that frames the length with quiet rhythm. Natural fading has lifted the palette into cream, taupe, brown, and charcoal, while traces of deeper pigment remain in the lower field. Circa 1915 - 1930, its surface reads as mellow and lived-in, with medium wear that adds depth without obscuring the original design language. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
