This Mallayer antique rug measures 307 x 396 cm and has a quietly aged, tactile presence. An allover lattice composition unfolds across the field, softened by faded blue, ivory, muted rose, and sage notes, while narrow borders and small floral details frame the design with grace. Medium wear has flattened the surface in places, lending the rug a mellow sheen and an atmospheric finish. Circa 1880 - 1900, it reflects the measured character of a wool rug whose pattern has gently receded into its own patina. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
