This Mallayer antique rug, measuring 173 x 356 cm, presents a deeply worn surface with the design softened by age and use. Its field settles into a muted harmony of dusty rose, cream, white, brown, and restrained teal, while the border carries a slim geometric cadence that frames the composition. Circa 1900 - 1915, it retains a quiet decorative order beneath the distress, with visible fading and edge character that lend the rug its layered, heritage-rich presence. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
