Mallayer / 25487

This Mallayer antique rug measures 6' 7" x 15' 1", with a long, refined field rendered in cream, taupe, and muted blue. The composition shows a faded floral body framed by multiple narrow borders, where geometric accents and delicate repeats still surface through the wear. Its high distress creates a softened, nearly washed finish that feels quiet and layered rather than uniform. Circa 1880 - 1900, it carries the restrained elegance and timeworn character often associated with Mallayer weaving, offering an antique rug presence defined by nuance, patina, and subtle contrast.
