This Mallayer antique rug measures 188 x 500 cm, with a slender field and a quietly formal floral layout shaped by wear and age. Cream and white ground tones are set against muted red, rose, brown, and blue-grey detailing, creating a softened palette with considerable visual depth. Circa 1915 - 1930, the rug shows visible fading and abrash, along with gentle edge irregularities that add to its lived-in character. Its elongated composition, central ornament, and patterned borders lend it a composed, heritage-led presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
