This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 122 x 170 cm, balances a rust red ground with muted blue, cream, ivory, and taupe notes, creating a surface that feels softened yet distinct. Three stacked diamond medallions settle into the field, while a floral border and refined guard bands frame the composition with clarity. The wool shows light wear and gentle fading, lending the rug an understated depth and a timeworn hand. Circa 1880 - 1895, it brings together geometric structure and floral detail in a way that feels both measured and expressive.
