Mallayer / 26610

This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 7' 5" x 15' 7", carries a washed field of muted floral detail in neutral, white, and cream tones. Its composition is softly framed by a restrained border, while the interior pattern has dissolved into a layered, atmospheric surface. Circa 1900 - 1915, the rug shows pronounced distress, with extensive fading and a tactile patina that gives the piece a quiet, aged presence. The long format and timeworn palette create an elegant balance between ornament and restraint, grounded in the character of an antique rug.
