This Mallayer antique rug measures 147 x 287 cm and presents a calm palette of cream, white, beige, and brown. Its composition is organised around a long central medallion arrangement, enclosed by slender borders and delicate geometric motifs that soften into the field. The surface has medium distress, with noticeable fading, horizontal abrashed movement, and a naturally worn, tactile character. Circa 1900 - 1920, it captures the nuanced balance of structure and age that gives a Mallayer rug its enduring visual depth. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
