This Mallayer antique rug measures 226 x 521 cm and shows a long, weathered field of layered geometric ornament in muted brown, cream, white, and faded blue tones. The composition is densely drawn, with a softened medallion presence at the centre and a narrow border that carries the design in steady cadence from end to end. Wool gives the surface a dry, tactile character, while the visible wear adds depth and patina without losing the structure of the pattern. Circa 1900 - 1930, it settles into a calm, heritage-led palette shaped by age, fading, and lived-in contrast.
