Mallayer / 29742

This Mallayer antique rug measures 99 x 335 cm, offering a long, pared-back form in cream, white, and neutral shades with traces of muted teal and faded rust. The composition suggests an allover floral field, a diffused central medallion, and a barely-there border, all softened by age into a calm, atmospheric surface. High distress brings visible fading and worn character throughout, allowing the original pattern to appear in fragments rather than in full definition. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the quiet depth and tactile patina often associated with a well-aged antique rug.
