Mallayer / 19656

This Mallayer antique rug measures 340 x 544 cm and carries a refined allover field of boteh-like forms, leafy stems, and multiple borders that frame the composition with clarity. The dark ground is tempered by cream, brown, and muted blue notes, creating a balanced contrast that feels softened by age. Medium wear, gentle fading, and slight tonal variation across the surface add depth without disturbing the structure of the design. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the layered pattern language and understated warmth often sought in a Mallayer rug, with a quietly textured presence.
