This Mallayer antique rug measures 109 x 231 cm and presents a balanced field of floral rosettes and lattice motifs in ivory, taupe, chocolate brown, muted blush and soft grey. The composition is crisp at a glance, then reveals a mellowed surface and gentle wear that soften the geometry and give the rug its tactile depth. A slender floral border frames the design with restraint, allowing the repeating interior pattern to carry the rhythm. Circa 1885 - 1900, this wool piece reflects the disciplined, decorative language often associated with Mallayer weaving, expressed here with a quietly aged, heritage-led finish.
