Mallayer / 15617

This Mallayer antique rug measures 190 x 386 cm and presents a restrained, time-worn palette in wool. The long field is composed with repeating floral medallions, angular detail, and a layered border structure, all softened into brown, camel, cream, and ivory tones. Its surface holds a calm, aged character, with medium wear that mutes the contrast and lends the drawing a beautifully weathered rhythm. Circa 1900 - 1920, it has the quiet balance and decorative density often associated with an antique rug of this type. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
