Mallayer / 15615

This Mallayer antique rug, 264 x 384 cm, presents a gently faded allover geometry in wool, with cream and soft grey tones warmed by muted gold and brown. Its field is marked by repeated lattice forms, small floral details, and a narrow border that now feels softened by age. Circa 1940 - 1965, the composition holds an understated rhythm, with high distress lending the surface a quiet patina and a tactile, well-worn character that remains legible throughout. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
