Mallayer / 17400

This Mallayer antique rug in wool measures 130 x 201 cm and presents a calm, heritage-led palette of cream, ivory, beige, taupe, and warm brown. The composition pairs a dense allover field of geometric and floral motifs with layered borders, while the surface shows generous fading across the centre and a softened, timeworn finish. Those broad lighter passages temper the pattern and give the rug an understated, tactile presence. Circa 1920 - 1935, it offers the measured balance of ornament and wear that is characteristic of a fine Mallayer, with its detail still visible beneath the patina of age.
