Mallayer / 29948

This Mallayer antique rug measures 2' 11" x 12' 5" and presents a long, restrained field of geometric floral ornament softened by age. The palette moves through brown, cream, white, taupe, muted rust, and traces of soft teal, with the pattern gently worn into the surface rather than sharply drawn. Border stripes frame the composition with measured symmetry, while the field retains a quiet sense of rhythm. Circa 1920 - 1935, it carries the look of a piece that has settled into a refined, time-softened state, with medium distress that deepens its tactile presence.
