Mallayer / 21016

This Mallayer antique rug measures 132 x 190 cm and has a calm, worn-in character in wool. Its surface is organised around a fine allover repeat, enclosed by layered borders that feel gently softened by age. The palette is restrained, with ivory, faded rust, taupe, brown, and charcoal tones creating a quiet, textural effect across the field. Circa 1930 - 1960, it speaks to the understated refinement and lived-in patina that define Mallayer weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
