This Mallayer antique rug measures 152 x 340 cm, with a long, elegant profile and a wool surface that feels richly worked and quietly timeworn. Deep indigo is lifted by faded teal, coral, cream, warm brown, and soft gold, creating a palette that reads both grounded and nuanced. An allover arrangement of floral and geometric motifs sits within layered borders, bringing structure to the generous field. Circa 1900 - 1920, it shows low distress, with gentle fading and softened edges that lend the design an authentic, settled character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
