Mallayer / 20885

This Mallayer antique rug measures 97 x 434 cm and is composed as a narrow, elongated field filled with repeating floral-vine motifs in deep teal, gold, and brown. The rust-red border introduces rosettes and angular ornament, holding the design with clear contrast and rhythm. Medium distress is visible throughout, including worn areas, faded passages, and softened detail that create a nuanced, timeworn surface. Circa 1900 - 1930, this wool Mallayer reflects the grounded palette and tactile age of an antique rug, with a composition that feels both disciplined and richly layered.
