Mallayer / 25502

This Mallayer antique rug measures 9' 11" x 18' 11" and carries an allover field of floral latticework, softened by time into a layered, painterly surface. Cream, brown, white, and muted blue tones are threaded with rust accents, while the border structure remains legible in a quieter register. The composition feels dense yet airy, with repeating motifs that shift in clarity across the worn pile. Circa 1920 - 1935, it reflects the restrained richness and lived-in character that make antique rug designs so enduring. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
