Mallayer / 25358

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 5" x 12' 1" and presents a long, refined field softened by time. An intricate network of floral and geometric motifs unfolds in muted teal, cream, pale tan, and coral, with a narrow border that frames the composition without interrupting its rhythm. The surface shows medium distress, with visible fading and worn edges that lend the piece a quiet, lived-in character. Circa 1890 - 1905, it carries the balanced symmetry and gentle wear that make this format especially compelling. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
