Mallayer / 22359

This Mallayer antique rug measures 208 x 384 cm and carries a subdued palette of cream, beige, brown, taupe, and ivory. The design is arranged across a faded field of geometric and floral motifs, framed by layered borders and slim guard bands that still read clearly despite the wear. Medium distress has softened the details and introduced a gentle, timeworn patina across the surface, giving the rug a calm, quietly expressive presence. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the disciplined patterning and understated ornament often associated with Mallayer rugs, with a textile character shaped by age and use.
