Mallayer / 31187

This Mallayer antique rug measures 3' 4" x 17' 8" and presents a remarkably elongated field, where a dark central column of medallion forms settles into a faded cream ground. Floral borders and slender side bands frame the composition with quiet precision, while the worn palette of blue, white, and muted earth tones creates depth through abrasion and age. Circa 1900 - 1915, the surface shows medium distress that softens the pattern into a nuanced, atmospheric read. The long format and timeworn finish give the piece an understated, collected presence.
