Mallayer / 16117

This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 208 x 475 cm, is defined by an allover field of compact geometric florals set within multiple patterned borders. Woven in wool, the neutral and brown palette is tempered with notes of faded terracotta, ivory, and muted teal, creating a weathered, layered surface. The design remains orderly even as the pile shows medium wear, softened contrast, and visible abrash. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reflects the restrained elegance and lived-in character associated with Mallayer rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
