Mallayer / 13399

This Mallayer antique rug, woven in wool and measuring 274 x 384 cm, carries a calm palette of ivory, cream, warm beige, and soft brown, with the design fading gently into the field. An allover floral lattice sits within a layered frame and narrow floral border, creating a balanced, enclosed composition. The surface shows medium distress, with visible softening, light abrasion, and an aged hand across the edges and field. Circa 1900 - 1915, it offers the understated tonal richness and worn elegance characteristic of a well-preserved antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
