Mallayer / 25782

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 0" x 5' 11" and presents a narrow, structured composition with a strong central chevron field framed by multiple geometric borders. The palette moves between neutral ground, brown, red, cream, and charcoal, with a few softened notes of faded blue that lend depth to the surface. The drawing feels rhythmic and graphic, yet gently worn, with low distress that preserves the clarity of the pattern. Circa 1915 - 1930, it carries the quiet balance and textural nuance that make Mallayer weaving so compelling. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
