Mallayer / 14951

This Mallayer antique rug measures 335 x 635 cm, with an expansive field of scrolling florals and compact ornament arranged around a vertical series of medallions. The palette blends red, brown, cream, and white with restrained blue and gold notes, creating a surface that feels both grounded and intricately worked. Its border brings a vivid floral cadence to the perimeter, while the overall wear remains subtle and even. Circa 1880 - 1900, this piece has low distress, softened colour movement, and the quiet irregularities that give an antique rug its depth and presence.
