mallayer / 29794

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 4" x 16' 4" and carries a restrained, timeworn palette of weathered blue, brown, ivory, blush, rust, and taupe. A long, narrow field is filled with repeating medallions and floral geometry, framed by a detailed border that keeps the composition crisp despite its softened surfaces. The antique rug shows low distress, with visible fading and layered wear that lend depth to the drawing and a quiet, collected character. Circa 1900 - 1920. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
