Mallayer / 21124

This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 124 x 193 cm, carries a layered field of geometric florals and angular motifs within a series of finely drawn borders. Cream and white ground notes are tempered by muted red, rust, sage, and charcoal, creating a palette that feels lived-in and grounded. The wool surface shows low distress, with even fading, softened definition, and a mellow patina across the field and edges. Circa 1920 - 1945, it reflects the measured character and decorative restraint associated with Mallayer weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
